Lots of Meaningful Scripture

Colossians 3
1If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
5Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
6For which things' sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:
7In the which ye also walked some time, when ye lived in them.
8But now ye also put off all these; anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy communication out of your mouth.
9Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
10And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:
11Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.
12Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
13Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
14And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness.
15And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.
16Let 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.
17And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
18Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as it is fit in the Lord.
19Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
20Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.
21Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.
22Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God;
23And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;
24Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.
25But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons.


I was reading this last night. Such a full chapter. I just want to dwell on some of the great charges found in this chapter. So many things to work on.....For instance. I know for me sometimes I have trouble focusing on the Above. This is very dangerous as the word says, the wrath of God may be upon those children of disobedience. The Wrath of God is something to be feared. We should be shewing forth fruits such as mercy, kindness, humbleness. And lets not forget Charity.
1 Corinthians 13:4 (King James Version)
4Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,5Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
7Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
8Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.


I love loving. I know that sounds funny, but I Love loving. Yet, I have to be careful with myself, as we think about the kinds of Love that we love with. I know for me my intentions for Love can be totally wrong. Giving love intending to receive. This is not the Love that is talked about here. The Love of Christ is what we must strive for. Christ's Love has never failed us, and won't. Thank you Jesus. Thank you for Unconditional Love. For loving a sinner like me. Help me to Love Everyone with THY Love.

"Giving love intending to receive."

It's hard to get past this one at times. We walk out on limbs for love and in faith, just to get them cut off from under us. That's life.

Not letting bitterness enter in is the real hard part.

And in the end, it's still "better to have love and lost than to never have loved at all."

But don't worry Codmo... I love ya.

Concrete finishing is very much like smoothing out frosting on a birthday cake.
Read your warranty carefully, and you'll see that it probably doesn't cover walls with efflorescence.
