These are my favorite verses taken from the book of Colossians verses 12 to 16 below:
12. Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
13. Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also [do] ye.
14. And above all these things [put on] charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
15. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
16. 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.
It is written to apply kindness, humbleness of mind and meekness in our daily lives as we mingle with people, our families, colleagues and even fellow bloggers. The non-Christians will perceive this as weakness, but God knows better and tells us to forgive our enemies so that you don’s carry the hurt and fester into a disease later on. Many illnesses are borne due to unforgiveness and bitterness in the heart. But when you forgive and forget, you move on and don’t harbor bitterness anymore. This is good for you and ensures healthy longevity.
