Ephesians 4
Just as I have been reading about Christ's love for me and the power He gives me through the spirit, we are to love one another:
2 Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.
Key here is that love is further defined as being gentle, even when we may otherwise not feel like loving someone else. For example, we might otherwise be inclined to feel vengeful or annoyed but this is not how Christ would feel towards us so we are not to feel this way towards others. Instead we must "bear with one another in love."
My Prayer: Lord, Your love for me I know is high, wide, deep, and stretches to the heavens and beyond - even then it is something I cannot fathom nor describe. I am amazed at Your love for me, for Your grace for me and the power You give to me through the Holy Spirit. For sure I am not deserving as I am a sinful man, certainly not bearing with others in love as You instruct and for this reason and many others I seek Your forgiveness. Invade my heart and my life Lord, and do what You need to do to transform me to be more like You Help me be completely humble and gentle and help me bear with others in love.
