What does God mean when He says that He wants us to bear fruit in our lives? The fruit of the Spirit is the evidence of His presence within us. When we yield to the leadership and counsel of the Holy Spirit, He shapes our character to be like Christ’s. When we make Him the center and source of our lives, the world will experience the fullness of His goodness through us. As long as we are living, fruit is being produced. While the fruit of our flesh and the ways of this world will waste away, the fruit of the Spirit is life-giving and everlasting. Which one is growing in you?
