Colossians 3:12-17
As God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and
patience. Bear with one another and, if anyone has a complaint against another, forgive each other; just as the
Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything
together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in
the one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; teach and admonish one another in all
wisdom; and with gratitude in your hearts sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God. And whatever you do,
in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
Ecclesiastes 4:9-12
Two people are better off than one, for they can help each
other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out
and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble.
Likewise, two people lying close together can keep each
other warm. But how can one be warm alone? A person
standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can
stand back-to-back and conquer. And with God in our
midst, three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not
easily broken.
Ephesians 4:2-4
Always be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other,
making allowance for each other’s faults because of your
love. Make every effort to keep yourselves united in the
Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace. For there is one body and one Spirit, just as you have been called
to one glorious hope for the future.
Songs of Solomon 2:10-13
My beloved speaks and says to me: "Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away; for now the winter is past,
the rain is over and gone. The flowers appear on the earth; the time of singing has come, and the voice of the
turtledove is heard in our land. The fig tree puts forth its figs, and the vines are in blossom; they give forth
fragrance. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.
