Endeavoring

"I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace" (Ephesians 4:1-3; NKJV).

Endeavoring - to use speed, i.e. to make effort, be prompt or earnest (Strong's).

Unity is possible. You must be willing. I must be willing. We must be willing to be one in Him.

Our Father would have us to be earnest in our pursuit of unity. We are to make every effort to be one in Christ. Let us be about the business of "endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace!"
