Today’s Scripture
Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. All bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor and slander must be removed from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, compassionate, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.
—Ephesians 4:30-32, NASB
Additional Scriptures

Family Moment
Can anyone in your family do 490 jumping jacks? Who can do the most? Read Matthew 18:21-22 as a family. How many times do we need to forgive others? Forgiving someone 490 times can be even harder than doing 490 jumping jacks! Pray together: “Heavenly Father, help our family to make the good choice to forgive. Help us to be quick to forgive others every day of our lives, with Your help. In Jesus’ name, amen.”
