Bible Verse: Colossians 3:15 - 17

15Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. 16Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. 17And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Bible Gateway (NIV)

Not only did God make a way for Peace to find us again, but we are able to live in this Peace for as little or as much as we want. What an amazing gift of love this is! Wow! You will find this Peace in the word of Christ Jesus. After finding this peace, defend it by challenging one another as iron sharpens iron and singing songs of praise for Peace has come alive! And always remember that the source of all freedom and peace comes from our Lord Jesus Christ. Praise you God!
Michael Barnett

15-17Let the peace of Christ keep you in tune with each other, in step with each other. None of this going off and doing your own thing. And cultivate thankfulness. Let the Word of Christ—the Message—have the run of the house. Give it plenty of room in your lives. Instruct and direct one another using good common sense. And sing, sing your hearts out to God! Let every detail in your lives—words, actions, whatever—be done in the name of the Master, Jesus, thanking God the Father every step of the way.
