Body Sense Day 13
The Mystical Body and her senses relies on Christ her Head. Christ gives sustenance and energy and the knowledge of the world around through the body senses. The human head contains four out of five body senses. Without the senses of sight, hearing, taste and smell we are spiritual vegetables completely isolated from our surroundings. The Mystical Body tastes with its mouth, hears through its ears, sees using its eyes and smells with its nose. Only one of the body senses, the sense of touch, is shared with the rest of the body through its largest organ, the skin. The human mouth in the head tastes food and drink and inhales air on behalf of the whole frame. The head's mouth brings in all the nutritional needs for every part. In the same way He, Christ, "fills everything in every way."1
Christians need to be constantly aware listening for and sensing the leading voice of Jesus. We are spiritually dumb and without this one of the senses until Jesus communicates for us. Every Christian depends upon a connectedness to the Jesus Head to live the Christian life. A young woman in a wheelchair commented, "My spinal chord is severed and my brain has no connection with my body. Sometimes my arms and legs flail around without warning and out of control! I'm a perfect example of a body separated from its head."
1 Ephesians 1.23
