In this sermon, Pastor David explores the concept of goodness as one of the Fruits of the Spirit. He begins with the starfish story, illustrating how even small acts of kindness can make a meaningful difference in someone's life. He emphasizes that goodness is not merely an attitude but must be expressed through action, benefiting others around us.
Drawing from his Boy Scout experience, Pastor David encourages believers to adopt a lifestyle of doing good daily. He stresses that goodness should be practical, making those around us emotionally secure, physically safe, and loved. He also addresses the challenge of maintaining goodness during spiritually dry seasons, reminding us that expressing goodness to others can be like finding an oasis in a desert.
Pastor David concludes with a powerful quote from Mother Teresa about the challenge of loving those close to us. He applies this concept to goodness, encouraging believers to show kindness not only to those far away but also to family members and fellow believers who may test our patience. He reminds us that we receive goodness from God and should urgently share it with others, making a difference one person at a time.
