got fruit?

12 03 2010

love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, self control

Tim Keller talks about them all being linked together…how can we know if we are growing?  if you’re growing in all of them

I also notice that when I am lacking in “some” of them…I’m technically lacking in all.

when I have a lack of joy and peace, I notice that the amount of patience I have for people…especially my students…is lacking…which then effects my kindness, goodness and gentleness…definitely my self-control.  which ultimately all effects my love, and faithfulness.

Lord help me to find all these things in you and your Spirit, so that I may be better at reflecting them to others
