It is unlikely that the discovery about diabetes will have any direct effect on their research. How foolish it would be if they left their specialized studies in order to get in on the diabetes breakthrough. They might be very close to discoveries of their own. The point is that the global Body of Christ needs even more ministry variety and Body parts than a local church does. All are neither eyes nor ears.

Most of the talk about what God is doing in the world today has little bearing on what He is doing in our local churches. The more we recognize the enormity and complexity of what the world-wide church has been given to do, the more we will realize that it will take millions of us being obedient to our unique callings. In our zeal to find the move of the Spirit in our day, let us not forget He resides within and gives directions to individual believers who have distinct parts to play.
