Bearing Kingdom Fruit
Reading:
Galatians 5:22-26 - But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.

Devotional: Branches don't strain to produce fruit—they simply remain connected to the vine. Fruit is the natural result of abiding. The fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control—manifests when Christ's life flows through us. This isn't about trying harder but staying connected. When you remain in Christ, your life naturally produces what the world desperately needs. People will know you're His disciple by your fruit, not your religious performance. Amy found a home where judgment fell at the cross instead of on her shoulders—that's fruit. The men's group gathering around a bonfire encouraging one another—that's fruit. What fruit is God producing in your life right now? How can you create space for more of His life to flow through you? Remain in Him today, and watch what grows.
