Space for Grace

Body
We are living through a time where people are often on edge in their relationships with people. The truth is, we all need to make some space for grace! In this busy holiday season, 'to-do lists' that are never complete, let us take time for what truly matters the most. The bible gives a refreshing perspective on living a better way in Colossians 3:12–13. 'Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.'
