This week, we are discussing Love and Joy as fruit of the spirit. When we are walking with the Lord, we should ask ourselves, "Are we showing love as Jesus would want us to? Is there evidence of joy in our daily lives?" It can be difficult in the face of trials and tribulation to be joyful. It can be very challenging to love one another, especially in the midst of difficult relationships. The Lord says that "people will know that you are my disciples by your love one for another," not by how many times we are right, what they can do for us, or how productive they were. Paul even wrote about rejoicing in the middle of a jail cell. So, how can we exhibit these particular attributes of fruitfulness in our daily lives, and what should that look like?
