TODAY’S WORD: Living in Harmony: Practicing Humility, Patience, and Thankfulness

HIGH FIVE!

The text from Colossians 3:12-17 emphasizes virtues such as compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, patience, forgiveness, and love. It also encourages letting peace rule in your heart and being thankful. Here’s a brief breakdown of its significance and how you can relate it to your life:

  1. Compassion and Kindness: These virtues encourage us to be empathetic and considerate towards others. You can practice this by helping those in need and showing kindness in your daily interactions.
  2. Humility and Gentleness: These qualities remind us to be humble and gentle in our approach to others. This can be applied by listening more and speaking less, and by treating everyone with respect.
  3. Patience and Forgiveness: These virtues are about being patient with others and forgiving their mistakes. You can incorporate this by being more understanding and letting go of grudges.
  4. Love: Love is described as the virtue that binds all others together. You can practice love by showing care and concern for others, and by building strong, positive relationships.
  5. Peace and Thankfulness: Letting peace rule in your heart and being thankful can lead to a more content and harmonious life. You can practice this by finding inner peace through meditation or prayer, and by expressing gratitude for the good things in your life.

Reflecting on these virtues and striving to embody them can help you lead a more fulfilling and harmonious life. How do you think you might start incorporating these virtues into your daily routine?

A READING FOR YOU…

14 For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. 15 The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship.[a] And by him we cry, “Abba,[b] Father.” 16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children. 17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.

Present Suffering and Future Glory

18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. 19 For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. 20 For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope 21 that[c] the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.

22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. 23 Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies. 24 For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have? 25 But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.

26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. 27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.
