Bringing the Fruit Salad

 

But the fruit of the Spirit
is love, joy, peace,
patience, kindness,
goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness, self control,
against such things
  there is no law.

        Galatians 5. 22-23

(Feel free as much 
            as we are able
to exhibit these elements
that mark us
         as believers.
We are known as His
not just by what we do,
     but who we are,
    and how we treat others
in unexpected,
    volatile,
or everyday encounters.
What are we practicing
and nurturing today
  in our appointments?)

O LORD,
Please make us aware
of opportunities today
to bring Your fruit
             to them.
Help us to not just
rattle off a familiar list,
   but live out
what they mean in real life.
May we be distinguished
  by each one
for Your glory.
