Chi Alpha @ Stanford

God made each of us unique, and He there­fore expects each of us to make a unique
con­tri­bu­tion in His service.

Con­sider: Xvxn though my typxwritxr is an old modxl,
it works quitx wxll xxcxpt for onx kxy. Xvxn though thxrx arx 46 kxys that work
wxll xnough, just onx not work­ing makxs all thx dif­fxrxncx in lxgi­bil­ity, cor­rx­ct­nxss,
and xffx­ctivxnxss. Somx­timxs it sxxms that our group is somxwhat likx my typxwritxr,
not all thx kxys func­tion propxrly. You think, “I am only onx pxr­son. Thxy
don’t nxxd mx. I can slack and it won’t makx much dif­fxrxncx.” But, you
sxx, Christ has madx us dif­fxrxntly. Xach of us is uniqux, and xach of us is
rxquirxd. It is writ­txn, “God has arrangxd thx parts in thx Body, xvxry
onx of thxm, just as Hx wan­txd thxm to bx.” And also, “Thx wholx body,
joinxd and hxld togx­thxr by xvxry sup­port­ing lig­amxnt, grows and builds itsxlf
up in lovx as xach part doxs its work.” So thx nxxt timx you think you
arx only onx pxr­son and that your xffort is not nxxdxd, rxmxm­bxr my old typxwritxr
and say to yoursxlf, “I am a kxy pxr­son madx by God for a pur­posx and am
nxxdxd vxry much.”
