Be patient, it can take a long time for the Fruits of the Spirit to grow within you. Just pray and know that God is working in you everyday.
In chapter 5 of his letter to the Galatians, Paul describes the Fruits of the Spirit, which are gifts from God that make us better people. Now Nim thinks he can make some improvements.
22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!
24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there.
25 Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives.
26 Let us not become conceited, or provoke one another, or be jealous of one another.
Get out your Bible and turn to Galatians 5:22 to read all about the Fruits of the Spirit. They are love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
Biblical names usually have meaning. For instance, Abraham means Father of nations, Isaac means laughter and Jacob means held by the heel.
Just because Christians try to live a Godly life but stumble, that doesn’t make us hypocrites. It just means we’re human! We’re not perfect, just forgiven.
“And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.” – Mark 12:30
To Live Is Christ!
– Philippians 1:21
We should always be grateful for simple things. The lack of gratitude can build up inside you and cause all kinds of trouble. Make sure to give thanks today.
