"Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body." 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
The Media Center at our school is anything but "just a library". On any given day, it also serves as an auditorium for the school or grade level hosting a special event such as International Day, Yankee Doodle Day, the spelling bee contest or special speakers, as well as teacher meetings, neighborhood meetings, etc.
On days when i feel like i work more for a moving company, due to rearranging for specials events, it's important i commit to memory "it's not just about us". As the Media Center, we must not lose sight of the fact we do not belong to just ourselves, our books and our work needs, but to the needs of a bigger body. Thanks to our extended duties at school, we get to experience many special moments that we would otherwise miss.
So it is with us personally too. As believers, God intends for us to take care of our needs... yet to remember, the larger picture of our life is being about His business of caring for the needs of others. And when we do, we get to experience and become part of a wonderous picture, bringing more glory and JOY to Him and others.
Father, more for You and less for me, let that my goal in life be.
Help me to honor You more with not just my body, but my mind and soul.
we are loved and chosen by God,
may we live, love and do like we believe it,
