So God has put the body together such that extra honor and care are given to those parts that have less dignity. This makes for harmony among the members, so that all the members care for each other. If one part suffers, all the parts suffer with it, and if one part is honored, all the parts are glad.
1 Corinthians 12:24-26 NLT
This call of Paul's is to care.
To really care.
To care about the situations others face, the place they find themselves, the impact on their lives of others actions and choices.
To really care about others regardless of their status or position or profile in the "body".
To really care when problems aren't easily solved.
To really care when it's messy, costly.
To really care when it takes my time, energy, money.
To really care.
That's what Paul seems to be calling us to, just as a body cares for all its parts, to really care...
