Colossians 3:13 NKJV

bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. Colossians 3:13 NKJV

One of the characteristics of the believer is flowing in the grace of God to bear with one another. Bearing with one another is to encourage one another no matter what it takes and how long it takes. People grow differently from each other and nobody fits into one mould. Therefore, we need to flow in the grace of God for one another. Forgiveness is the biggest part of encouraging and bearing with one another. Most of the time when we bear with one another, people take advantage of that and then will blame us for their mistakes and failures. We must be forgiving. Forgiveness must be a part of our lifestyle. We must not hold onto any form of unforgiveness but always forgive. Unforgiveness will cause us to be bound under satan's power. It will cause our hearts to be hardened and insensitive towards God and His love. When someone becomes mean towards us, complain and murmur, we have to remind ourselves how Christ Jesus loves us. None of us deserves the love of God because we are good or because we have earned it. We have all of the Kingdom because of what Jesus Christ did for us. In the same manner, we too need to extend the grace of God to one another as God has extended it to us. Let us keep strong in loving with the love of God and caring for one another. Blessings
