Colossians 3:  12 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 

Paul follows this advice with a reminder to forgive others as God has forgiven us. Then he asks them to bind together their acts with love. 

It's a nice Paul, a gentle Paul, a loving and forgiving Paul. I can always use a reminder to act this way. I'm trying not to dwell on that perceived slight, that difference of opinion. I want to be the kind of disciple my God deserves. 

Prayer:  I am making a promise to focus on these fine qualities:  compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, patience and love. I know that You expect no less from me. I love You, and I desire to please You. Help me to become a more faithful servant. 
Amen
