Colossians And I Will Need To Post Earlier From Now On



 

 COLOSSIANS 3:12-17
KJV

Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

Yesterday I was reading your blogs. Faye, whose blog is call The Blessed Hearth (see it on my sidebar) had this passage on her post. I love this passage.

How wonderful if we could all be like this. :) Possess all these qualities. How different the world would be. How much more in tune with the Spirit we would all be.  
I like this part:  

And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.

Charity...the pure love of Christ. 

Have a great week.  Take care.....
