The Fruit Of The Spirit Within Us

^“22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, ²³ gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law” (Galatians 5:22-23 NKJV). Here Paul lists the fruit of the Spirit. These could be broken down into many other manifestations of the Spirit as He brings forth fruit from within us. These result in behavior changes, such as self-control. But they all flow from love. Listed first in this list, love becomes the agenda for the believer. Everything comes from God’s love, and we grow through understanding, believing, and allowing that love to guide us in everything we do.
