The Pursuit - 12 Weeksنموونە

Paul describes the “acts of the flesh”—a long list of destructive behaviors: sexual immorality, jealousy, anger, envy, drunkenness, and more. This is what life looks like when sin rules. And notice that it includes both big and little sins.

But Paul doesn’t stop there. He contrasts it with the “fruit of the Spirit”—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. The difference couldn’t be clearer. Sin leads to brokenness; the Spirit leads to flourishing.

Every day, we face a choice: will we follow our sinful nature or walk by the Spirit?

Reflection:

Which fruit of the Spirit do you most long to see grow in your life right now?
