"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law."
Galatians 5:22-23

Paul says fruit, not fruits. It is one fruit with many flavours, all growing from the same Spirit. We do not manufacture love or patience; we cultivate the conditions where the Spirit grows them in us.

Look at the list honestly. Which flavour is hardest for you right now? That is not a reason for shame, but an invitation to ask the Spirit for more of His life in that area.

Prayer

Holy Spirit, grow Your fruit in me. Where I am impatient, unkind or unsettled, fill me with more of You. Amen.

Today's step

Choose one fruit of the Spirit to focus on this week and ask God for opportunities to practise it.
