Verum BibleSpiritual Growth•6 minutes
Formed by the Spirit
The Spirit forms a life marked by love, patience, kindness, and self-control.
Galatians 5:22–25Paul names the fruit of the Spirit as qualities that shape how we treat other people. They are not a personality test or a way to compare spiritual progress.
Growth becomes visible in ordinary moments: patience when plans change, kindness when someone is struggling, and self-control when anger wants to lead.
Pick one quality from this passage and ask how it could guide a situation you will face today.
Reflect
Which fruit of the Spirit would most change the way you meet today?
A prayer for today
“Holy Spirit, grow love and patience in me and guide my choices toward the good.”
