"Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ, greets you, as do Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, my fellow laborers. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen."
Philemon 23-25
Paul was not a one-man band. He was surrounded by people who shared his passion, vision, and burden for the Gospel – his fellow prisoner and fellow workers. There are people who think they don't need anyone else. They are self-sufficient. I'll admit that at times I have not been a team player. It seems so much easier to just do it myself. But the Church – the Body of Christ – functions best when the various members of the body cooperate together with their unique giftings to accomplish God's mandate.
Today's Thought: The wise person recognizes his need for the help of other people.
Have a "fellow" day. Love you.
