“Lessons from Physical Therapy”

Ephesians 4:16 "From Him the whole body, fitted and knit together by every supporting ligament, promotes the growth of the body for building up itself in love by the proper working of each individual part. "

Recently I have been going to physical therapy for my knee. I have no cartilage left in it, so I was dubious it would do any good, they can't rebuild cartilage with physical therapy. The therapist explained that while he could not rebuild it, he could work on the muscles and ligaments supporting the knee. They could be trained to take over some of the function and provide relief that would result in more mobility and less pain.

That is what we are to do with each other as believers. When one of us is suffering or lacking, we can act as support, provide relief, and reduce pain. It is ok to rely on each other and we need to look for ways to provide support.
