Daily Word: Fruit is Good For YOU

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


Well everyone knows what fruit is.  Its that tasty stuff that you're supposed to eat 5 times a day.  Eating fruit makes you feel good immediately and has lasting health benefits when you consistently eat it over time.  


Fruit is also defined as the result or reward of work or activity, as in the fruits of our labor.  It is the end result of doing something worthwhile.  The fruit of the Spirit is a daily reward we get to enjoy for living an honest, responsible, God-fearing life.  And among those rewards are love, joy, and peace.  The wonderful thing about these fruits is, that by enjoying them, we get closer to God (the Spirit).  And the closer we get to God, the more fruit we get to enjoy.  Pretty cool, huh?  


So today eat your fruit.  Enjoy these rewards that God has given us for living a right and good life.  Its good for you AND it will make you feel good.  --Lady S.
