Galatians 5:22-23 (New International Version, ©2011)
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
We are these things. If we have accepted Christ as our Savior, and His Spirit lives in us, then we are these things.
We forget though. We get caught up in our personal drama and we believe Satan's lies...
Next time you find yourself saying the opposite, try this instead...
"I am loving, joyous, peaceful, forgiving, kind, good, faithful, gentle, and I have self control. I just need to act like it." It feels weird at first, but it really works!
A prayer for reminder:
Lord, I don't feel the Holy Spirit inside me sometimes. Quiet and peace is necessary for me to redirect my compass, breathe your love, and freshen my mind. Remind me today that I am Yours, You reside in me, and I am your faithful servant! AMEN
