But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.
Galatians 5:25
When we examine ourselves, we can look at what it is we take out into the world with us. How do we approach life? If we are grouchy, we need to consider that we are not serving up the best God has for us to share.
We all have bad days and we all can be caught up in a really bad attitude, but we need to remember that that is not what we are called to and not what God has for us.
The fruits of the Spirit remind us that we are more than our circumstances - we are chosen and we have been gifted much from God and we can show it by allowing the fruits of the Spirit to fill us.
