The Body of Christ
by Patricia Joan Polhans

The body of Christ is a unit,
though made up of many parts.
Its' segments are but many,
forming one body and one heart.

Some sections of the body
that are seeming, yet, to be
Weaker an unattractive,
need greater maturity.

The ear can't say to the eye,
I will have no part of thee.
For all must grow together
in spiritual maturity!

Those found insignificant
are ones that are needed most.
Without them the whole body
wouldn't be fully composed.

The parts that are still lacking
Require acceptance and honor
Each having equal concern
for their virtuous brothers.

All should be doing their part,
confounding the bold and the wise,
Components necessary in
completing the body of Christ.

All must be built up in their spirits,
coming in line with the Word of God
Having all parts fitted together
and doing their task of love.
