Ephesians 4:20-32 NKJV
But you have not so learned Christ, if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught by Him, as the truth is in Jesus: that you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.
Therefore, putting away lying, “Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members of one another. “Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath, nor give place to the devil. Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need. Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

Update

If you receive email reminders when I post new content and are wondering why it’s been so sporadic lately, it’s because I’ve been posting a bit sporadic lately. I completely missed last weekend. After returning from my trip, I had to jump back into my morning routine for work and didn’t get my blog posts done until evening which threw off the timing. Then, I almost got caught up and then I got sick. I’m still sick so I post whenever I wake up but may miss the “deadline” of when my feed goes out for the day. I’m praying I’ll get back in the swing of it by Monday. Keep praying to be filled, refilled, renewed with the Holy Spirit, and see what He does in your Spiritual journey.
