This Sunday, Ps Aaron Snow continued our FRESH series on the Fruit of the Spirit with a challenging message titled BE PATIENT. Our text is centered around Galatians 5:22-26. As we continued on the list of 9 attributes of the Fruit of the Spirit, he shared a quote from author Christopher Wright, “The first three items in Paul’s fruit basket sound very spiritual, heavenly almost. Very nice for Sundays at least. But his next one, patience, brings us back down to earth on a Monday. What are we like to live with the rest of the week? How do we cope with all that presses in on us in the hustle and hassle of life?”
We also learned that the opposite of patience is actually anger, that anger can lead to revenge or indifference, and three ways for us to cultivate patience.
So the big question this week is, are you angry? Anger itself isn’t a sin, but what we do with it can be.
If you or someone you know struggles with this attribute of the fruit of the Spirit, we hope you will listen and share this message with others who need to experience His peace.
Our prayer each week is that we would help you to KNOW Jesus personally and begin to trust that He has a Purpose for your life. If you want or need prayer, would you let us know? We would love to pray with you and for you as God continues to reveal His grace and truth to you in a real and powerful way! You can email us at hello@wearepurposechurch.com
