Chatty Bus

Read: Colossians 4:2–6

Let your conversation be always full of grace. Colossians 4:6

In 2019, the Oxford Bus Company launched the instantly popular “Chatty Bus,” a bus with designated people on board willing to talk with interested passengers. The route was initiated in response to government research which found that 30 percent of Britons go at least one day each week without a meaningful conversation.

Many of us have likely experienced the loneliness that comes from not having someone to talk to in a time of need. As I reflect on the value of important conversations in my life, I’m especially reminded of discussions that were full of grace. Those times brought me joy and encouragement, and they helped to cultivate deeper relationships.

At the end of his letter to the Colossian church, Paul encouraged his readers with principles of authentic living for believers in Jesus, including ways our conversations can exhibit love to everyone we encounter. The apostle wrote, “Let your conversation be always full of grace” (4:6), reminding his readers that it is not simply the presence of words but the quality of those words—“full of grace”—that would allow them to be a true encouragement to others.

The next time you have the opportunity to connect deeply in conversation—with a friend, co-worker, or even a stranger seated next to you on a bus or in a waiting room—look for ways your time together might bring blessing into both of your lives. — Lisa M. Samra

When have you experienced the blessing of grace-filled words? How might you extend encouragement to someone today through what you say?

Heavenly Father, help me to be a blessing to everyone I speak with today, filling these conversations with Your grace.

Bible in a year: 1 Samuel 13–14; Luke 10:1–24

One of my favorite crooners:

Auf Wiedersehen, My Dear--Russ Columbo (1932)

Here's another version:

Auf Wiedersehen, Leb Wohl (goodbye, fare thee well)--Paul Dorn, with Adalbert Lutter's Dance Orchestra (1932)

[spel_grammer_an_punct_polise]

Warning: The lady chorus members in the following video are fully-clothed. However, the jump suits which they are wearing are absolutely skin-tight as if they were poured into their clothing. If the shape of the human physique or suggestive physique movements offend you then I advise that you do not click on the video! Rather, scroll down to the "Click For Music" icon and click on it. ;-)

You have been forewarned. Do not come crying back to me about how offended you are, OK?

This Video is, "Amor Loco," by Lazarito Valdes Y Bamboleo, followed by the Normal Music List.
