Colossians 3:  14 And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.

Paul tells the readers a list of things to put aside:  anger, wrath, malice, slander and foul talk. He tells them to put on compassion, kindness, lowliness, weakness and patience. But mostly they, and we, need to love and seek harmony. 

I need to remember that. I'm prone to some items on the first list, especially those which deal with talking. And I need to fortify my grasp on the second list. But mostly I need to find love for everyone I meet. 

Prayer:  Lord, I am sorry that I have spoken ugly words. I am sorry that I talked about others in an unkind way. Please forgive me, and help me to truly forgive those who have offended me. I long to become a better servant. 
Amen
