ALWAYS FORGIVE​! – Colossians 3:13 Devotional

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

ALWAYS FORGIVE!

Colossians 3:13 – Devotional

Colossians 3:13

“Forbear one another, and forgive one another, if anyone has a quarrel against another: even as Christ forgave you, so you do also.”

Many times I have heard people pray to become more like Christ … and then immediately begin to tear into those around them. The words of their prayer must be offensive to the Lord as He calls us to be like Him.

How many of these attributes would describe the way you behave: TENDER HEARTED? MERCIFUL? HUMBLE? MEEK? PATIENT? WILLING TO PUT UP WITH OTHERS? FORGIVING? (Is it getting quiet in here?)

If we truly want to be like Christ, we need to behave as Believers ought to behave. That means treating others in the same manner we would like for them to treat us. It does not mean that we deserve it or that they deserve it, but just as we need it, so do they need our compassion.

We all have a long way to go in having a Christ-like spirit, but we begin by trying to see ourselves and others the way Christ sees us — fallen sinners who are in need of love and forgiveness. BE THAT FOR OTHERS AND IT WILL RETURN TO YOU!

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!

GENUINE BEAUTY​! – 1 Peter 3:4 Devotional

by | Mar 26, 2026 | 1 Peter

Hear Pastor Cecil read today's Evotional

GENUINE BEAUTY!

1 Peter 3:4 – Devotional

1 Peter 3:4

“Beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit is very precious in the sight of God.”

A dear friend once forwarded a prayer request from a deeply distressed daughter. Her mother was facing serious medical issues and her father was giving loving care to his precious wife of many years. This daughter said that her dad still thought his wife was the most beautiful woman in the world, regardless of her age and physical condition.

As I read those words I thought back to the last days of my wife, Joyce. Her frail little body required much attention. She could hardly move and her mind had difficulty staying focused. In spite of all that, she was to me the most beautiful woman in the world.

Why was that? It was the inner beauty that Jesus had given her. Joyce never was one that enjoyed the spotlight. She was shy by nature, but her gentle and quiet spirit cared about people and she ministered in her own quiet way.

Many flashy females (MEN AS WELL!), movie stars, pile on the make-up to make themselves look glamorous. In a very short time that outer façade wears off and they lose their appeal. Truly godly people get more attractive as the years pass us like a parade. God’s Genuine Beauty is what we should strive to attain.

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
