šāBut the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.ā ā Galatians 5:22ā23
š¬Ever catch yourself doing a little āspiritual self-checkā ā like, āWhere did my joy go?ā or āWhy is my patience missing in action?ā š Good news: the Holy Spirit isnāt standing over you with a clipboard and a grade book. Heās not the Fruit Inspector ā Heās the Fruit Grower.
The fruit of the Spirit doesnāt ripen overnight. Growth takes time, sunlight, pruning, and connection to the Vine (John 15). When we stay rooted in Jesus, the Holy Spirit cultivates these qualities in us naturally.
So if your peace feels small or your kindness is struggling to bloom, donāt give up. Stay connected. Stay yielded. The Spirit will do what only He can ā grow Christlike fruit from surrendered soil. ššæ
