From Colossians 13:13-14:  “Bear with one another and, if anyone has a complaint against another, forgive each other; just as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.  Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.”

Faith’s journey with Christ

Seeking all things above

Heavenly treasures wait

Revealed in Messiah’s love

Bitterness removed

Embracing Christian love

Salvation’s welcome voice

Nourished from heavens above

Spirit of patience

Spreading each truth of love

Just as Scripture teaches

Joined in Christ, grace shines above

God’s mercy forgives

Sharing peace from above

Harmony’s hope brings joy

Marked with unlimited love

Resurrection’s light

Raising praises of love

Redemption fills each heart

Witnessed by Lord from above

From the words of American pastor, Harry Emerson Fosdick:  “Bitterness imprisons life; love releases it.”
