In View of God's Mercy
What is God's mercy and why do we need it? If we don't know the answer to these questions, chances are we have blindspots in showing mercy and compassion to others (especially those closest to us). Jesus helps us see these blindspots and floods us with His mercy to transform us into merciful people.

Distractions
“Because You're mine, I walk the line.†Those words of the familiar Johnny Cash hit could have been penned by the Apostle Paul nearly 2000 years ago. In the letter to the Colossians, Paul motivates us to follow Jesus wherever He takes us. He repeatedly points out the need for us to grasp the significance of our position in Christ and how our walk is transformed by His presence in our lives. In this short letter, Paul refers to Jesus by name more than 50 times. As we work our way through this letter over the next couple months, the significance of this will become evident. Paul’s objective is clear to point the Colossians to Jesus Christ and encourage their walk in Him. The equation that we will find in Colossians is Jesus + nothing = Life. This is not the equation that the world proposes to us, Jesus + our job, our family, our friends, our car, our hobbies, our (you fill in the blank). This isn’t even the question that the church has proposed for much of history, Jesus + works, Jesus + tradition, Jesus + experience, Jesus + ____ (you fill in the blank). With all these obstacles that are placed in our path it is no wonder that we have trouble walking the line. Fortunately for the Colossians and for us, Paul knows that in Christ we can walk the line.

Christ warns us to not have a bitter, hypocritical, fault-finding spirit. In being judgmental of others, we're often condemning those around us in order to avoid examining our own issues. We are urged to be merciful, forgiving and generous.
