Fruit of the Spirit - Galatians 5:22-23 nkjv

The fruit of the Spirit are gifts from the Holy Spirit for us. The are the attributes of Jesus that we should be striving for.
Everyone of these Jesus demonstrated as He walked on the earth.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.
Galatians 5:22-23 NKJV

As you go through your day, think about each one of these and see if you are walking in them. I know I have to ask myself if I am. Somedays is easier than others and some gifts are easier to walk in than others. Everyday I love you, but that doesn't mean every day I am patient or kind to you.

The scripter continues with:

24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
Galatians 5:24-26 NKJV

We crucify our flesh, meaning we are in control of our feelings and actions. Not to say we won't deal with anger or sadness. But it won't control us. We are in charge, but it's action steps we have to take.

We can never be perfect, only Jesus is perfect. But we can strive to be like Him each and every day.

Remember God Loves you. Jesus Christ loves you.
Have a blessed day.
