The Fruit of Joy is Delicious




            Have you had your Joy Juice today?  It’s very healthy!  No sugar, no calories, no artificial flavoring! “Taste and see” that is oh, sooooo good!

            So often at the beginning of each new year, we make resolutions. Many of us want to change our habits and try to make healthier choices.  One of the foods that we need to include in a healthy diet is fruit.  Today let’s talk about making fruit an important part of our spiritual diet, as well.

            Time and time again fruit is mentioned in the Bible.  The passage the immediately comes to our minds us Galatians 5:22-23.  Though these verses are familiar, we should never let them lose their importance in our lives. Listen with fresh ears:

        “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.  Against such things they is no law.”

            The fruit of the Spirit…is the spontaneous work of the Holy Spirit in our lives.  If we allow Him to and are committed in our walk with God, these character traits will become byproducts in our lives.   If we want the fruit of the Spirit to grow in us, we must join our lives to God…come to know him, love him….open our hearts to Him.  (Bible footnote)

            Do you desire to have this kind of fruit?  It’s the sure way to experience the genuine JOY that comes from knowing Christ.  Ask for your generous serving today!
