But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.--Galatians 5:22-23 (NIV)
Dear God,
Thank You for the work that You do in me by Your Holy Spirit, as I allow Christ to be Lord of my life.
I want to be
a man who walks in the God-kind of love, overflowing with joy, patiently
bearing with others, acting in kindness and with goodness, remaining faithful
in all situations, demonstrating a gentleness of spirit and maintaining
self-control at all times, so that there can be no charge against me that I
have done any wrong thing.
I know that
this is only made possible inasmuch as I am able to submit my will to the lordship
of Jesus Christ and allow Your Holy Spirit to work within me to produce these
traits that are themselves, the very nature of Christ.
So help me
to know Your Son, to love Him with all that is in me, to trust Your Word to be Truth,
and to do what I know to be Your will, so that by Your Spirit, You will produce
this good fruit in me.
Thank You for the work that You do in me by Your Holy Spirit, as I allow Christ to be Lord of my life.
In the name
of Jesus, Amen.
