The Fruit of the Spirit Galatians 5:22-23
The traits, characteristics, or gifts of God to an individual are listed as love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Everyone has been given all of these, we must use them or lose them so to speak. As people use their muscles, the muscle gets stronger and easier to use in the way it was intended. Likewise, when we use love or self-control, we gain experience in how to do so properly.
"The Donut Man" from the "Donut Repair Club" may have said it best in the song he wrote for the kids to better gain a grasp of the Fruits of the Spirit mentioned in the Holy Bible in Galatians 5:22-23.
"Oh God is a good farmer
And he wants his fruit to grow
Oh when he looks inside your heart
Will you be able to show that
Love takes care of others
Joy means that God makes me glad
Peace is still and quiet
Patience waits and is not sad
Kindness and Goodness are nice to others
Faithfulness has faith and trust
Gentleness knows how to listen
Self-Control knows how to say no"
Actions indeed again ... God guides us in our actions. He gave us the gifts needed to care for each other, hold our tongues and not speak hurtfully, to wait happily and contented not to be anxious for anything, to listen much more than we speak, to say no, and to believe.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
“Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit” Romans 15:13.
