Prayer Verse

This week's prayer verse is from Colossians 3:12-13

Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.

My guess is that we wouldn't be told to "bear with" and "forgive" if it were a natural response. Maybe that's why the passage continues with "forgive as the Lord forgave you".
