We are all members of the body of Christ through the Holy Spirit, who has baptized us; it does not matter where we are from. For the body to function in unity, there must be evidence of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Each member must be willing to forgive the other, as Christ has forgiven each of us. Love creates the bond of unity. We are admonished to let the peace of Christ, to which we are called, rule in our hearts. Let us all make a conscious effort to see Christ in each other. Then it becomes easier to love and forgive each other
