Put on Love


Where are you going with the New Self we've been looking at? What can keep us from going back to our old inconsiderate and selfish behavior? There is one more thing we must add to our list of virtues...LOVE. Not the love we read about in steamy romance novels, but the love Christ teaches us. It's the love that knits us together and promotes unity. It's the love that encourages to live in peace. We can not have this love by ourselves. We receive it through Christ living in our hearts and giving him the power. The hard part is giving him the power. But each time we do, we experience change. Having a heart filled with love and peace can definitely be first on our gratitude list.
Have you given Christ absolute power over your heart? He will help you.
"And to all these things, you must add love. Love holds everything and everybody together and makes all these good things perfect.
Let the peace of Christ have power over your hearts. You were chosen as a part of His body. Always be thankful." Colossians 3:14-15
