Colossians 3:12
Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.
Being judgmental and self righteous is easy especially in a world that that teaches us that everything is about the self. A world that preaches self over all else. Although it may sound good to the hear, it is futile for one to allow themselves to be taken over by the thought of self.
As God’s Holy people we must indeed clothe ourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. We must be engulfed in these things and through that allow ourselves to give it off unto others. We will be doing ourselves an injustice if we do not allow ourselves to love, and show tender mercies and patience. As a chosen people we must be ready to show God to those around us. Learn to lay self aside because if you are overcome with self it will be very difficult to allow the goodness of self to flow through you. Emulate Him in all your ways.
