Many of us likely have a bowl of fruit in our kitchen…filled with apples, oranges, bananas, grapes and other delicious produce. Fruit doesn’t only taste good but it is good for us providing important nutrients to keep us healthy. So what is fruit of the Spirit? It’s not found in a bowl on the kitchen counter but can hopefully be found in every person who is a follower of Christ!
Fruit of the Holy Spirit is the result and evidence of the presence of God’s Spirit in the life of a believer. As Christians we now have qualities or traits that reflect God’s nature and are meant to show the world who God is.
The Bible describes fruit of the Spirit this way:
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23.
It is the desire for all Christians to practice each one of these traits in daily life with all people – but it isn’t always so easy!
Join us as we explore and learn about each fruit God gives and how to apply it in a practical way in every situation and relationship.
