Humble Service in the Body of Christ
1 For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.
2 For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function.
3 so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.
4 We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith.
5 if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach.
6 if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.
