Colossians 2:2 I want that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God’s mystery, which is Christ.

Reflection:

We often hear of a community of believers as a tapestry, many people and their gifts woven together to become the fabric of the church, the body of Christ living here and now in the world.

Questions for reflection:

When you think of your participation in the local church (or the universal body of Christ), what important threads to you see? How have you been woven into the fabric of God’s family? How have you (and can you) allow yourself to be used for God’s work today?
