The ways of the Lord are exemplified by the Fruits of the Spirit…love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, kindness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. It is so easy to get derailed and off track with these ways because the world is pushing for self-centered behaviors of hate, anger, dissension, me first, greed, faster, get out of my way and other similar attitudes. God keeps His promises and He will encourage you, hold you up and strengthen you for every and any battle…it is up to you to be engaged in your relationship with Jesus Christ and for you to read the Word of God to gain the wisdom and understanding God provides. If we are unsure of where God is in our life then we should continue in prayer and wait for Him…He always shows up, always. I pray we seek to live the Fruits of the Spirit in our relationship with the Lord and with others. Amen.
“Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.”
Psalm 27:14
