Colossians 3:12-15
Contemporary English Version
12 (A) God loves you and has chosen you as his own special people. So be gentle, kind, humble, meek, and patient. 13 (B) Put up with each other, and forgive anyone who does you wrong, just as Christ has forgiven you. 14 Love is more important than anything else. It is what ties everything completely together.
15 Each one of you is part of the body of Christ, and you were chosen to live together in peace. So let the peace that comes from Christ control your thoughts. And be grateful.
