Destroyed from the inside out

Wednesday January 24th, 1 Corinthians 12: God put our bodies together in such a way that even the parts that seem the least important are valuable. 25 He did this to make all parts of the body work together smoothly, with each part caring about the others. 26 If one part of our body hurts, we hurt all over. If one part of our body is honored, the whole body will be happy. A society is to be judged by how we treat the least among us. We have the largest rate of incarceration in the world. More than 5.6 million Americans are in prison or have served time there, according to a new report by the Justice Department released Sunday. That's 1 in 37 adults living in the United States, the highest incarceration level in the world. That should tell us that we are doing something wrong. By not caring for the least, lost and lonely, we are destroying ourselves from the inside out.
