TOENAIL
Toenails are a small part of the body, but if something is the matter with one of them they can affect the whole body. Have you ever stubbed one of your toes, smashed any of your toes enough to rip off one of your toenails? Painful eh? Ouch! Like a stubbed toe, when we complain and argue our words have the power to cause others to stumble or at the very least tremendous discomfort. Our every little word can affect the whole body. The beginning of this verse if very clear instructions, "DO EVERYTHING without complaining or arguing..." Imagine what life would be like if we trained ourselves to think and act in agreement with this verse. "Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe. " Philippians 2:14-15
