“Therefore, as
God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with
compassion,
kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.
Bear with each other and
forgive one another
if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord
forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which
binds them all together in
perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts,
since as members of one body
you were called to
peace. And be thankful. Let the message
of Christ dwell among you
richly as you teach
and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns,
and songs from the
Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever
you do, whether in
word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to
God the Father
through him.” New International Version
Not long ago
the phrase “W.W.J.D.” [What Would Jesus Do?] was very popular. Perhaps you wore an arm band or had some
other reminder. Well, this passage is an
expanded answer to that thought-provoking question.
