BONDING, THE GLUE THAT RAISES A FAMILY
Just as it is in raising up a natural family, I have mysterious ways in how I teach, train and raise up many children into adulthood. In a room full of interacting people, take a moment to look at the attention span of each and every age group. The baby’s eyes wander to and fro as it watches the toddler play. Seemingly oblivious to the adults interacting around him, the baby’s world is watching the age just ahead of his own. He listens to the language of the toddler and applies it to what the toddler is doing. The toddler listens and watches the grade schooler and mimics. The grade schooler stretches towards the teenager’s life directly above him, and dreams of walking in importance. The teen looks at the young adult and stretches his wings towards independence.
Each age group is directly bonded with the next and this is how I have raised one generation to the next. Those who walk just ahead nurture and teach the one directly following. The secret glue that holds the attention span for direction and insight is an emotional bonding that is invisible and not clearly understood. And this secret is how I AM going to raise the harvest of many newborn children, for there are not enough parents and nursemaids to raise them up. No sooner will one find his breakthrough of discovery, than he will turn and teach the one immediately following what he knows. These connections will be supernaturally placed according to My divine design in joining My family together as one unit.
1 Cor 12:14-21 NLT
Yes, the body has many different parts, not just one part. If the foot says, “I am not a part of the body because I am not a hand,” that does not make it any less a part of the body. And if the ear says, “I am not part of the body because I am only an ear and not an eye,” would that make it any less a part of the body? Suppose the whole body were an eye — then how would you hear? Or if your whole body were just one big ear, how could you smell anything? But God made our bodies with many parts, and he has put each part just where he wants it. What a strange thing a body would be if it had only one part! Yes, there are many parts, but only one body. The eye can never say to the hand, “I don’t need you.” The head can’t say to the feet, “I don’t need you.”
