🆕Put On Charity♥️

Don't worry about what you can't do; focus instead on what you can do... and then do it.

— Billy Graham —


Colossians 3:12 (KJV) Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;

Colossians 3:13 (KJV) Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.

Put on We read that phrase 3 times in this chapter. In verse 10 we read put on a new man. Then in verse 12 we read that after we have put on the new man it bring mercy, kindness, humbleness, meekness, long suffering. Then we read “forgiving one another” and then the example of forgiving “as Christ forgave you” But you don’t know what they did! No, but I know what Jesus Christ did and if anyone should be unforgiving it should be Jesus for what you and I did to Him. We don’t own enough paper and pens to write that down. Then in verse 14 we read Colossians 3:14 (KJV) And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. Don’t you just love it “above all these”  Don’t do all the above out of a "I have too attitude but instead do it out of a loving attitude. Because it is out of the bond we have in Christ Jesus and He is perfect. Remember the saying “what would Jesus do?” In order to know what Jesus would do we first have to have a bond with Christ Jesus. That word “bond” jointed together, cements together. ¡Put on “charity”!
