Colossians
3:12-13 “Put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, long suffering;
bearing with one another” (NKJV).
What
start me on with this verses? This Friday early morning of February 8th,
I asked God, “What do you want me to know today?” I was reading one devotion and it had great
impact on me. I wrote to simplify the
reading from “Our Daily Bread, Lawrence Darmani.
It
was about a group who traveled to a conference in Kenya (Africa). At the end of
a conference, the group traveled to a guesthouse to prepare to fly back home (USA)
the next morning. When they arrived at
the airport, one person forgot her luggage back at the conference center. While she left to get it, the group leader sharply
criticized her for forgetting her luggage to the group.
The
next morning when they arrived at the airport, the leader discovered he too
left his luggage with his passport at the guesthouse. Now it was going to cost
them even more to go for his baggage. Later, he apologized and said to all of
them, “I’ll never criticize so harshly again!” (He can’t fly back to USA
without the passport!)
I
realized God was speaking to me this morning from Colossians 3:12-13 “Put on
tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, long suffering; bearing with one
another” (NKJV). The word, “bearing” had
a great meaning for me, just one word “support.” Be supportive with Tony. Be supportive is very gentle and kind.
Oh! That really touched my heart from God’s Word
to encourage me “to be more supportive to Tony.” I am thankful that God is interested in
helping me to grow spiritually to be like His Son, Jesus Christ.
May
the Lord touch you and bless you tremendously!

PS.
By the way, Tony’s final test came clear of skin cancer and thank you for your
prayers. God bless.
