Fruit of the Spirit

Something I read this morning that we all need to meditate on!  (Including myself!):

The fruit of the Spirit refers to the virtues of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness (meekness, humility) and self-control.

When you display irresponsible behaviour, pride, expressions of enmity, lack of love, and other works of the flesh (Galatians. 5:19-21), you are lacking the fruit of the Spirit.

If you have been born again by the power of the Holy Spirit, you are eligible to receive the things of the Spirit of God. You must be willing to let the Holy Spirit produce these virtues within you (Gal. 5:22,23).

This is good! I can always use this kind of reminder!

Did you see that Lex had her baby? She's very cute and I actually enjoyed holding her LOL (baby, not Lex).

Have a good day and I'll see you later, right?
