Five Things I Learned about the Fruit of the Spirit


Galatians taught me that real transformation shows up in how I live. Paul made it clear: the Christian life is not about managing behavior or checking boxes—it is about bearing fruit. The Fruit of the Spirit is not a list of goals; it is the evidence that the Spirit is alive and active in me. Each trait—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—is not something I can manufacture. They are grown in me as I walk with God. The fruit is not just personal; it is relational. It shapes how I treat others and how I carry the presence of Christ in daily life.
