BREAD OF LIFE

Somebody came on the radio today,and spoke of the recent benefits of adding 4 new things to your diet.He explained that olive oil, garlic;apples,.....and CHOCOLATE, were beneficial to the body! ( I could have told him Chocolate was!)
The body of Christ is no different than what we put into our bodies,either!
When I think of olive oil,I think of using it to saute' when cooking,as so many Italian cooks do.It's easy to work with........ I think of spicy Italian food, and how many folks of Italian,or Eastern descent that we have in our body.They might be spicy,but they're easy to work with too!The garlic in our body represents the Spanish influence and its special addition to our church body.They tend to add the zing that's often needed in our church body too!...I would say that the apples probably represent the caucasion folks....plain,but sweet, and you can take them in just about anything! My favorite is chocolate, as you know, and they represent our black friends, who can be either "nutty"or"plain", but down right wonderful!They add so much to the body with their wisdom and fellowship.
All of these together make up a wonderful body of Christ......
Only because that body has a head that is the BREAD OF LIFE.......JESUS CHRIST!
