But they are not connected to Christ, the head of the body. For we are joined together in his body by his strong sinews, and we grow only as we get our nourishment and strength from God.
In real life, being connected means that you’re pretty well supplied. Just like plants grow when they are deeply rooted to soil, when a person is deeply connected to God, that person gets the kind of nourishment that’s needed for surviving life. Jesus said man should not live by bread alone, but by every word that emerges from the mouth of God. John Wesley wrote, “I want the whole Christ for my Savior, the whole Bible for my book, the whole Church for my fellowship, and the whole world for my mission field.” People are interconnected with each other in one way or another, but when it comes to God we have to individually choose to be connected to Him for our source of strength and power. Have you chosen to be connected with God today? Furthermore, are you using your connectivity to connect others with God?
