1 Chronicles 3, Proverbs 14:17-35, Ephesians 4

What God said to me – You live in a world where everyone does what is right in their own eyes and truth and righteousness are pretty much disregarded.  But I say to you to walk in a manner worthy of your calling.  Your calling is to be like Me, so you are to walk in humility and gentleness, with patience, showing tolerance for one another in love.  Now when I say to show tolerance it is not the same as when society says to be tolerant.  I never instruct My children to be tolerant of sin.  Sin is abhorrent to Me and is never to be tolerated.  So, when you are confronted with sin you must speak the truth in love, offering the opportunity for redemption and forgiveness.  When I say to show tolerance, I mean for people and the differences in personalities and customs and ways of doing things – you may be quiet and calm, but you should still tolerate those who are loud and excitable.  You should appreciate those who are not like you and the different perspective they can bring.  I put each one in My body for a purpose and unity within the body is glorifying to Me.
