Update, some thoughts.

Hello all!
Sorry for the long time no post situation! Haha I've been very busy. Fourth of July was amazing, I spent it with a lot of friends from church out at UCO, hung out, watched the awesome fireworks, and went to a late night movie (Hancock) to end it all up :]. Also, the next day I went to church and spent the night at Jacob and Kody's house, where we lit fireworks. This year's holiday rocked! I hope yours went as well as mine :].


As for learning, I'm trying to still slow down from the craziness and get back to what He's teaching me. Before the weekend came, I kept thinking about how I can show Him to more people, in the way I act. And then I kind of had a "DUH!" moment, when I realized in order to show Him, I need to be more like Him, so people will see Him when they are around me! So I dug into it a bit.


As I researched it, that entire last week the Fruit of the Spirit kept coming up! Right and left I kept hearing it, so I decided to think about it and dwell on it. As I did, I finally realized WHAT they mean. I have heard that term since I was super little, and just now put together that He has put the answer key to how He acted (Jesus) here on earth in these "fruits". So I encourage you to look over them, think about how they apply in your life, and show Jesus' acts more to whoever you're influencing throughout your every day. Which the actual term of "Christianity" means to be like Christ. So here's the answer:


Galations 5:22-23
But the fruit of the [Holy] Spirit [the work which His presence within accomplishes] is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (an even temper, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness, 23 Gentleness (meekness, humility), and self-control (self-restraint, continence).
