My Bible Story

Paul explained that the Church is like a body — one body with many parts. Every part is important: hands, feet, eyes, ears. No part can say, “I don’t need you!” God gives each believer a special role. When every part works together, the Church is strong and healthy.

What This Teaches Us

  • Every believer has a purpose.
  • No one is more important than others.
  • We need each other to serve God well.
  • Working together brings unity and strength.

Memory Verse

“You are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.” — 1 Corinthians 12:27

Prayer

Lord, thank You for giving me a purpose. Help me work with others to serve You. Amen.
