Day 5 of In Every Conflict...Grace
A Community Marked by Grace
Reading: Colossians 3:12-14
Grace isn't meant to be hoarded individually; it's designed to overflow into community. Paul instructs believers to "clothe themselves" with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience—making allowance for each other's faults. A grace-filled community becomes a safe place where people can be honest about struggles, where mistakes don't result in condemnation, and where restoration happens without shame. When grace permeates a church, visitors feel it immediately. It's tangible, inviting, transformative. As you interact with your church family this week, choose grace in every challenge. Extend patience when someone disappoints you. Offer kindness when conflict arises. Be the person who reflects God's limitless grace to those around you.
Reflection: How can you help create a culture of grace in your community this week? What practical step will you take?
