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
If you are holding something against another person, put
your pride down and apologize.
God calls believers to live in peace and unity. If we have a
“grievance against someone,” we can bring it to Him. He will help us to
reconcile.
Christ sets us free to forgive.
