Colossians 1: ⁹ For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, ¹⁰ so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; ¹¹ strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience; joyously ¹² giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light.

Our days in experiencing technology that delivers news on the spot helps us gain visuals of varied crimes committed whereby many exercise in more indignation that condemns permanently (cf. Jas.2:13). Thereafter, we’ve witnessed the court trials and sentencing for these perpetrators to note great pleas from the mothers of those socially rejected. The condemnation from many equates these mothers with being responsible for their child’s lack in social compliance that landed them in this proposed mayhem. All that Mother saw was the child she loved (*cf.1 Ti.1:12-17).

LOVE = “Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things” (1 Cor.13:7).
