Fruit, not force

The qualities Scripture calls the fruit of the Spirit are grown, not generated. You can create the conditions; you cannot force the harvest.

Read

Galatians 5:22–23KJV

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

Read it in context

If you want to read on

John 15:4–5

Think about this

Which of these is most obviously missing? Which is quietly growing?

Pray

God, grow in me what I cannot manufacture.

These are words to start from, not words you have to use.
