Colossians 3:20 Children, be obedient to your parents in all things, for this is well-pleasing to the Lord.

Scripture has a number of things to say about believers developing this important attribute. First, it is our calling. God urges us to be tolerant, kind, and bear each other's burdens ( Ephesians 4:1-3 ).
