Colossians 3:12-17  The Message

^12-14 So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It’s your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it.
^15-17 Let the peace of Christ keep you in tune with each other, in step with each other. None of this going off and doing your own thing. And cultivate thankfulness. Let the Word of Christ—the Message—have the run of the house. Give it plenty of room in your lives. Instruct and direct one another using good common sense. And sing, sing your hearts out to God! Let every detail in your lives—words, actions, whatever—be done in the name of the Master, Jesus, thanking God the Father every step of the way.

For Reflection
What does the wardrobe of God look like?  It is the robe of kindness, humility, quiet strength, and discipline.  It is the robe of forgiveness.  It is the robe of justice.  It is the robe of peace.
Pray

that you will seek to wear the robe of God.  Pray that you will let your life infuse and become infused into the warp and woof of the robe of God.
