Proverbs 27:17 (NLT)...

FROM TODAY'S READING (2/8/2016)...

"You don't get anywhere by yourself."
  • Matt Ryan (Atlanta Falcons quarterback/2016 MVP)
Proverbs 27:17 (NLT) As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.

1 Corinthians 12:18-26 (NLT) But our bodies have many parts, and God has put each part just where he wants it. How strange a body would be if it had only one part! Yes, there are many parts, but only one body. The eye can never say to the hand, “I don’t need you.” The head can’t say to the feet, “I don’t need you.” 
In fact, some parts of the body that seem weakest and least important are actually the most necessary. And the parts we regard as less honorable are those we clothe with the greatest care. So we carefully protect those parts that should not be seen, while the more honorable parts do not require this special care. 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.
