Living a life that is pleasing to God can feel overwhelming if we lean on our own strength. But as we spend time with God and the Spirit brings about fruit in our lives, we are enabled to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord.
Sometimes our idea of bearing fruit doesn't align with the fruit God is bringing about in our lives. True fruitfulness will include growth in faith and love, signs of the gospel of Christ taking root in us.
