One Body, Many Parts

The New International Version Chapter 12

For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, 5 so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. 6 We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us.

Even though the body is one, there still needs to be diversity

Going through that situation and how I handled myself and was there for others, it has led to oportunities such as a job.
