“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.”
Galatians 5:22-23, 25 KJV
Good morning Divine Ones! We are working with the Fruit of the Spirit and reviewing Temperance and all of the Fruits today. Temperance is “moderation in action, thought, and feelings.” (Webster’s). It is the ability to direct one’s behavior in right ways” (Revealing Word). We have the ability to direct our behavior in right ways because we have the power of choice. Temperance is self-control. All of the Fruits are powerful spiritual character building blocks. Each builds upon and works with the other. Faith is man’s foundation. Love is the power that joins and binds in divine harmony the universe and everything in it.” Joy is “the happiness of God expressed through (God’s) perfect idea-man.” (Revealing Word). Peace is “freedom from disquieting or oppressive thoughts or emotions” (Webster’s). Patient-Endurance is “being steadfast despite opposition, difficulty, or adversity. Gentleness is “being free from harshness, sternness or violence. Goodness is being “of favorable character or tendency. The Meek are “anyone highly trained to react to all negative stimuli with love instead of an eye for an eye. All of the Fruits are vital to our spiritual growth. As we work with each Fruit situations will come that will force us to use a particular Fruit. “Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.” Matthew 24:44 KJV. We don’t know when we will be called upon to use the Fruits. It could be today, it could be tomorrow. Don’t know. But, rest assured it’s coming. Be ready Divine Ones! Be ready! Tomorrow we begin a new series on the Beatitudes. More tomorrow!!!❤️💙🧡💖
