Let The Peace Of Christ

 Rule In Your Hearts

 

Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.

Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Colossians 3:12-17

If your grandson comes up to you and asks, “Whatcha doing Granpa?” it might result in some simple answer. But if God were to come up to you, speaking through the Spirit in you, and asked the same question, how would you respond?

We all need to beware of spending too much time

 on matters of too little importance.
