Fruits of the Spirit


Galatians 5:22-23 - "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control." (NIV)
These 9 fruits best describe aspects of a Christian character. Paul used this list to show the contrast between a Godly character and one that is focused on fleshly concerns.
I strive daily to live my life with all the 9 fruits of the spirit. I want people to see in my life that Christ lives in me. It isn't always easy and I sometimes fail but I am thankful that I serve a forgiving God.
