Kindness

Col 3:12 Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. 13 Make allowance for each other's faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. 14 Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony.

A good melody line is nice, but there is something so very pleasant when the melody is joined by perfect harmony. For those who enjoy music the harmony brings a completeness to a song.

Yesterday, I met with some loving brothers in Christ and I shared a burden that had been weighing me down. They showed tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. They prayed with me and encouraged me. While in that place I heard the harmony. When I left there my heart was light and the word of Christ was dwelling in me richly once again.

I thank God for those dear brothers and their willingness to show tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.

Today, look for opportunities to do the same for someone else.

Love in Christ,
