The Peace Of Christ
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
It is real easy to pass judgment on someone without knowing where they
are in their earthly lives.
God’s Word sends us in a charitable direction, instructing us to treat
each other with kindness, humility, and patience.
Treat others as would like to be treated, remembering that we don’t
always know the burden they may be carrying.
If you are tempted to lose patience with another
person,
think how patient God has been with you.
