As this series ends, I wanted to share how I came about talking about the subject of the fruits of the spirit. one night I got this lyric to a song in my head from the song Only the Good Die Young by Billy Joel which says, I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints. That night I believe came upon a song called Rebels by Influence Music & Micheal Ketterer which says, You can find me with the sinners. That very same thing I was thinking about that night worldly became faith, God spoke to me. (I hear God through songs a lot.)
The next morning, I was ready to talk about this and then I started to look up joy and the fruits of the spirit came up and I got in my spirit to talk about this. So, I started down the journey of going through the fruits of the spirit that morning.
I have learned a lot going through each of the fruits of the spirit. I have read that verse before and never really looked at each one individually to see what it actually meant. I hope you have learned something in the process of going through the fruits of the spirit with me.
The biggest takeaway for me was.
Love is the basis for everything in our walk and faith.
Love + one fruit = What we are to be as Christians
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23 KJV
I leave with the verse that was the foundation for the entire series. This is the only verse that is shared today not so I can finish quick or be a one Bible verse sharing (which is wrong) But so that you go back and look at this verse with all the other verses that I have shared.
Have a fruit of the spirit kind of day!!!!
Tomorrow sinners than saints!!!!
