Galatians 5:22 (NET) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness
Lanre’s adopted mother didn’t expect him to attend her birthday party due to their strained relationship. To her surprise, not only did Lanre show up, but he also presented her with the most valuable gift of the celebration. Having forgiven his family, Lanre experienced liberation from the psychological wounds inflicted by his emotionally toxic upbringing. No longer shy and awkward, he now exuded the joy and confidence of the Lord, thanks to the transformative power of Christ. Lanre’s ability to manifest these divine attributes stemmed from his willingness to let go of his pride and desire for revenge.
Many believers today fail to fully manifest the fruit of the Spirit because remnants of their fleshly nature remain active within them. While they may avoid overt immorality, feelings of envy and pride persist, hindering the expression of divine attributes such as patience and kindness in their lives.
Remember today that to bear the fruit of the Spirit, one must crucify the flesh and its works. The old must die before the new can emerge.
—Abraham Damilola Arigi
