But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!
The fruits of the Spirit will be active in the lives of authentic followers of Jesus Christ. These nine attributes produced by the Holy Spirit allow us to live in the best way possible in this very broken and sinful culture.
We all have two choices in the short life we live on earth. We either follow Christ or we don’t. If you are a follower why not evaluate yourself today, this week, and this month on these nine attributes, or fruits. Here is the list, and you can check them off when you catch yourself practicing one of them.
Love
Joy
Peace
Patience
Kindness
Goodness
Faithfulness
Gentleness
Self-control
As you love those around you, even the unlovable, you will find that these nine fruits of the Spirit work together. They will change you, shape you, and transform the way you live your life. With God you can do them daily.
It is amazing the difference these fruits make in the lives of those that allow the Holy Spirit to work through them daily.
