Each Christian is a dispenser. God has suppliedeach one with gifts He has selected (He does notoffer an array of options), with the good of all in mind. When we imagine that these gifts are for our own mere satisfaction, we are forgetting they are intended for service. All that I have is meant to contribute to the needs of others, and what I need will be supplied through God's dispensers. Thus He unifies and harmonizes the whole church, which is his body, making each dispenser indispensable, for each dispenses a grace which is peculiarly his.
"Serve one another with the particular gifts God has given each of you, as faithful dispensers ofthe magnificently varied grace of God"
(l Pt 4:10 NEB).
