Ephesians 4:1-3
In light of all this, here's what I want you to do. While I'm locked up here, a prisoner for the Master, I want you to get out there and walk—better yet, run!—on the road God called you to travel. I don't want any of you sitting around on your hands. I don't want anyone strolling off, down some path that goes nowhere. And mark that you do this with humility and discipline—not in fits and starts, but steadily, pouring yourselves out for each other in acts of love, alert at noticing differences and quick at mending fences.This scripture is really hard to live out practically especially when there are differences between two people both of which are cared about deeply! I had an experience today at the contact table that really embodies this passage. I have a choice how to react to situations that require me to think about others rather than myself! This is humility! I really like how the message puts the scripture because it's so honest! I need to act out love! It's not always easy but require because of HIS great love and my calling which requires this type of love!
