I have only had one cavity in my entire life. It abscessed and the dentist jerked it out. I think I was about 12 years old. The last week my teeth have been killing me. I am on some major pain relievers right now. Anyway the dentist said it’s not my teeth. It is my gums (more money). Just by looking at me or my mouth you would never know I am experiencing any difficulty (except for the glazed gaze from the drugs).

That’s the way a lot of people handle problems in the church, if you can’t see it, it ain’t there (I know ain’t ain’t a word ). Sometimes when you ignore difficulty you end up having to have surgery . Anyway the deal is, deal with problems before they cause so much pain that it requires surgery. That is true in your body and in the body of Christ.
