Do not grieve the Holy Spirit

of God, with which you were
sealed for the day of
redemption.
All bitterness, fury, anger,
shouting, and reviling must
be removed from you, along
with all malice.
And be kind to one another,
compassionate, forgiving
one another as God has forgiven you in Christ.
Ephesians 4:30-32
