1 Corinthians 12:25-26
There should be no division in the body,…its parts should have equal concern for each other. If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.
We are just parts. None of us constitute the whole. The whole is the mystical body of Christ. His life in us—in all of us. This is why we intercede for one another. We are never alone.
Remember the old Russian Orthodox saying: “The only thing you can do alone, by yourself, is perish.”
