It’s “Fruit of the Spirit” Week on The Morning Thing

We kicked off a special week today on The Morning Thing. We are digging into scripture this week to focus on the fruit of the spirit. (picture from Pinterest)

Galatians 5:22-23 New International Version (NIV)
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.

On Monday, we focused on Patience and Self-Control.
We hope you take a few minutes to look at these powerful articles.
