The New Testament scripture, 1 Peter 1:3-25 captures the Fruit of the Spirit perfectly. As Peter addresses foreigners spread throughout nations of Asia, he is also addressing all the important fruit. Peter reminds us what Hebrews 11 says - remember, from a few episodes ago? Just incase not (wink) Hebrews 11 says all the people who earned a good reputation with the LORD did not see its fullness because more people are meant to receive the reward of salvation. Peter reminds the people to play the long game. Though, sometimes frustrating, painful, and a test of patience, the long game allows for the discipline necessary to receive the prize. How encouraging - especially during the times of uncertainty, loss, and back-to-back tests of patience!
