Peace
 
Colossians 3:15

• When we become born again, we're suppose to take off the deeds of the old man, and we're to put on the deeds of the new man. (Col 3:9 & 10)
• We have endless mercies.
• You cannot wear out the love and forgiveness in a believer.
• WE, the Church, should be a haven of refuge and love for believers and unbelievers alike.
• God's love is unconditional and we, Christians, should exhibit that same love to others.
• God doesn't ask us to pay for our sins. Those are covered through the blood of His Son, Jesus.
• We should forgive others in the same manner Christ forgave us.
• We can display every mannerism of Christ, do all different types of works; however, if it's not bond together with love, it's in vain. We can do the smallest of task with love and it becomes great.
• Our feelings, our actions and our circumstances doesn't make a difference in God's love for us. It doesn't change that we are Children of God.
• There is no shame in stumbling and falling; it's in not getting back up. We all stumble and fall. DON'T STAY THERE!!!!
• Sometimes what people need is to know that someone cares.
• Do what you can do, but do it with love.
• Love from a brother or sister in Christ can make more of a difference than one would imagine.
• You are NOT alone. We are one body in Christ. You don't have to suffer alone.
• Love is a choice, not an emotional decision.
• We have to be acceptant of faults. We cannot condemn for the fault of others. Once we make the choice to love someone, we will be acceptant of a person's faults and be thankful for them.
• It's up to God to choose where He places us.
• Focus on the blessings, not the negative circumstances in our lives.
