Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.
As the Spirit of God is operating through us, the attributes listed above should be present.
The main attribute that should be present is love. As we know, God is love therefore, His Spirit, which is made of love, should yield the fruit of love. Although God is love and His love should be radiating through us, God gave us choice. It’s a choice to express God’s love towards others. It’s not a feeling or an uncontrolled emotion. It’s a choice.
At no point does the Word of God say loving will always be easy. We love when others treat us poorly. We love when the other person didn’t do anything to earn our love. We love because Christ, our example, loves. As children of God, it should be a pressing desire to love. As we can see from above, God’s desire is for us to love too.
So, drop your rocks, anger, bitterness, and resentments and share the fruit of love.
*Share this with others. More to come.
