Galatians 5:22-23 (NKJV) "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law."

As Terron deepened his walk with God, he noticed that the more he yielded to the Holy Spirit, the more his character began to change. He wasn’t just experiencing God’s power; he was also growing in love, joy, and peace. This growth is what the Bible calls the "fruit of the Spirit," which naturally develops in a believer who lives a Spirit-led life.

The presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives doesn’t just empower us; it transforms us from the inside out. When we walk with the Spirit daily, our hearts begin to change, and we become more like Christ. This transformation is evident in the fruit of the Spirit—qualities that show God’s character in us. The more we surrender to the Spirit, the more love, patience, kindness, and self-control begin to grow in our lives.

The fruit of the Spirit doesn’t come from human effort but from staying connected to Christ. Jesus said, "I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit" (John 15:5). Just as a branch cannot bear fruit on its own, we cannot grow in spiritual fruit unless we remain close to Christ through prayer, worship, and obedience to His Word.

As we grow in the fruit of the Spirit, our lives reflect God’s nature to those around us. People begin to see God’s love, patience, and peace in us, which can draw them closer to Him. The fruits of the Spirit equip us not only for our own spiritual growth but also for impacting others with the love and grace of Christ.

Go into today knowing that the Holy Spirit is at work in you, growing the fruit of a Christ-like character. As you yield to Him, He will continue to develop these qualities in your life, making you a vessel of God’s love, peace, and goodness in the world. Prayer: Lord, help me to grow in the fruit of the Spirit and reflect Your character in all I do. Strengthen me to abide in You daily and transform me from the inside out. Amen.
