Generally fruit grows on trees and branches, however, humans have a much stronger fruit. With the days given to us from our Lord, all our lives should be rooted in the presence of Jesus. Our core should be strengthened with love, with the same sense of love found in the fruits of the spirit.
There is a children’s song that you can hum, "The fruits of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control." Meditate on this when you feel yourself digressing.
Your spirit is not a two story home, you can only chose to be on one level. Either go
upstairs where the fruits of the spirits rest or mozy down stairs where you can do whatever you would
like with the world.
Our souls are built as a single story house, where we are perpetually called to carry on with our lives bearing the fruits of the spirit. Nevertheless, there is also a face we can not
divert from. The bright glowing face of our Lord Jesus Christ, who made it
through all this with flying colors.
This face is what your eyes must rest on.
This face is what your eyes must rest on.
Love makes its way through to touch each of your hearts, giving
you access to these fruits. Not
fruits as cherries or berries, but much more prominent one in
our lives.
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things. Now those who belong to the Messiah Jesus have crucified their flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also be guided."
Galatians 5:22-25
