Love Notes to OBS Group from East & West Campus Sessions

East Campus AM Session: 

• Love through all circumstances regardless of how painful.  Because of God's love - we can love the Saints.  
• Encouraged by all of the different gits to build up the body and that each person is important in that process.  We are building blocks in God's Holy Temple.  Jesus was the firstborn creating life and was the firstborn in death, rising from the dead to once again give us life.
• Jesus knows how to build a well oiled machine for His glory through us!
• One insight which stood out to us was spiritual gifts.  While we have a primary gift or others.  At times we may have a specific gift given for a particular occasion.  Such as the gift of knowledge may be given for a specific purpose in a situation where it is need.  Or the gift of healing.  
• Our Spirit-given gifts can be used apart from abiding in Jesus.  When we use our gifts apart from Him, we are walking in our personal pride and hurting the body of Christ actually tearing it down.  Jesus is the ONE HEAD of the body.  What would we be like without our heads?  Useless and dead.  When we use our gifts in the power of His Spirit we are using our Head to build up His Body! 

West Campus PM Session:

• We who are in the image of Christ have different gifts working towards a common goal.
