MAY 1, Galatians 5:22-23
This month’s study is on The Fruit of the Spirit. The word “fruit” is singular, meaning one “fruit.” And “the Spirit” refers to the Holy Spirit. This is not a physical fruit you eat, but a special spiritual fruit. It is a fruit with 9 points or parts. These are the 9 virtues or characteristics of love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance.
Dear reader, who has this Fruit of the Spirit? Clue: the Holy Spirit lives in the heart of the child of God. You must be a true believer before the Fruit of the Holy Spirit can be found in you. We will find out more about The Fruit of the Spirit this month. And we will study each characteristic (good quality) in detail in the following days.
Please circle all the fruits:
Thought: Am I a child of God? Does the Holy Spirit lives in my heart?
Prayer: Heavenly Father, help me to believe in You, so that I will have the fruit of the Holy Spirit. In Jesus’ nam I pray – Amen.
