Living a life that reflects Jesus is hard to do in isolation. In fact, it is nearly impossible. Think about the things that God’s Word urges us to do and be. We are encouraged to be compassionate and kind. And we are to show humility and patience. We are called to forgive and, above all, love. These all involve other people! If for no other reason – and there are plenty more – we need to live in community for the opportunity to display Jesus’ character to others. Crawford Loritts explains how God has chosen to use us as tangible expressions of His love.

What would it look like for you to address others in “psalms and hymns and spiritual songs” (Ephesians 5:19)? It is doubtful that God is asking you to make your life a constant musical. But what if your words to others, spoken plainly, made melody to the Lord as they pointed people to the gospel? God desires to care for His people and has a part for you to play. You can live like Jesus as you help others along their journey of faith.

Colossians 3:12-17

Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Ephesians 5:18-21

And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit, addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart, giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ.
