Fruit Filled

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 

I love this passage of scripture. The fruit of the Spirit is not a singular list. Rather it is a full list. A fruit filled life is a life marked by love and peace. It is a life of longsuffering which is a patient presence.  The fruit filled life is a gentle life. 

A fruit filled life is graced with goodness.  It has faith as its foundation. Meekness exists, that is, strength under control. Temperance, self control is a part of the fruit filled life.

The fruit of the Spirit is a list built by God. It is abundant in its instruction by providing us a way to take inventory of ourselves. Fruit filled. Let our lives in Christ illustrate the healthy glow of a soul nourished by God.  Fruit filled.

God bless!

In Christ,

Help…My Help

  Psalms 46:1   “God  is our  refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Help.  God is my Help. Always present…in trouble and in triumph.  Help.

Constantly replenishing. Help. God is My Help. God bless. In Christ, Sis. Stephanie

THE WHAT AND THE SOEVER

  Philippians 4:8 “Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things  are honest , whatsoever things  are  just, whatsoever things  are  pure, whatsoever things  are  lovely, whatsoever things  are  of good report; if  there be  any virtue, and if  there be  any praise, think on these things.” The truth is Jesus. Honestly. This is a fact. Scripture declares Him to be. The Way, the Truth, the Life. His ways are holy and just. His Word is pure. He is altogether lovely. Focusing on the whatsoever things is to abide in the peace of God. Thoughts centered on bountiful blessings. Determined to dwell on the goodness of God rather than the constant chaos perpetrated by the enemy of our souls. The What is also the Who.  He is the King of Kings. He is the Lord of Lords. Matchless in power and might. He is the Faithful and True. He holds the balance in His Hands. God weighs the intent of the heart. True Hones...
