CHEERIOS

When Daddy fixed his cereal in the mornings, he would first pour in some Cheerios, followed by Cornflakes, and some other fruits and grains, before he was ready to eat his breakfast. He then fixed a slab of Miss Wisconsin Cheese on multi grain toast and he was ready to eat! It was a major undertaking watching him get ready to eat. He always said that it made for a better and more nutritious breakfast!
The body of Christ is no different!
Although you don't add anything to the gospel of Jesus Christ, the body of Christ is made up of a multitude of individuals that enhance the body and give it a variety of flavor. We mix together nicely, but we're not mixed up, because our God is not a God of confusion, but of order, and He knows what He is about!
One day, there will be bowls that will be poured out over the earth that won't be quite so pleasant, so for now, I think I'll take Daddy's Cheerios, and Jesus Christ!
