Ephesian 4:32

And be ye kind one to another, tender hearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.


Have you ever lived, worked, and or worshipped in an environment that was chaotic? Not only was it chaotic, but you really desired tools to better navigate in and through the same. Well, the author of this passage shared with the church at Ephesus how to avoid becoming what so many today are trying to escape and or navigate. 


First, he shared How to Regulate their Relationships, “And be ye kind one to another, tender hearted”. Take heed! He also shared with them Their Responsibility in their Relationships, “forgiving one another”. Further, he shared with them The Reason they should maintain their Relationship, “even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.” Hence, let us be reminded that in order for us to attain calmness in the midst of chaos, we must work on us. Until the next time, may the blessings of our God continue to be upon each of us. 


The Prayer: 

Father, thank you. It is in the name of your Son that we offer thanks. Amen.
