I thought I was just affirming what had been said, but I guess my mention of the Law of Liberty did not communicate the Liberty part. when you quoted those verses, it lifted my spirit. Especially this one: 12So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; 13bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you. 14Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. Colossians 3:12-14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes I agree, waiting before God is assuredly the best place to wait. I am, but not as much as tomorrow. For each and every day, if I can know and get closer to this Christ who died for me, a little more than yesterday, it was a blessed day. In Christ, Not me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colossians 3:12-14 34“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35“By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:34-35 22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23 But the above qualities will lead to good works. Because the above qualities are something in us, a change in our hearts/lives.... something the Holy Spirit has wrought in us. Because we are now new creations in Christ, the works will naturally follow. Not in a legalistic way, but in our spirits.... reaching out to others with good works, with the love of Christ for others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
