Colossians 3:5-12

Paul’s letter to the Church at Colossae is really well worth the read so maybe you might want to look at the whole thing but for today the reading is as above.

Paul has just told the people there they are all one regardless of status, nationality or ethnicity. He now tells them some fairly obvious things – be kind, compassionate, patient and forgiving. Have you really tried to exercise these virtues? I mean really tried? ​

I often jokingly say, “Christianity is not my default position, it is hard work” and most folk laugh because of the incongruity of that statement as I am a cleric. Why do you think Paul reminded those early Christians about being patient etc.? Because it is not easy: the Christian way of life demands more of us than sometimes we fully understand and being compassionate, kind patient and forgiving is not always our default position.
