Hope is a beautiful thing to have! When you lose hope, you lose your joy and your peace. Nothing good can come from hopelessness, so hold on to your hope no matter what happens to you or around you. Don't lay aside your hope in difficult times. Hope deferred makes the heart sick and you don't want that.

The Fruit of the Spirit for today is "Goodness". Let us take a bite of goodness and see what it tastes like for believers who say they are indwelt with the Holy Spirit. How is goodness demonstrated in your life? Are you good to some and not to others? If that is the case in your life, then you are not being led by the Holy Spirit and He does not have complete control of your life.

There are nine fruit of the Spirit and "Kindness" is the fifth one. We have all nine of the fruit within us, but we must choose to display them in our every day lives. We don't need to pray for them or pray for more of them; we only need to use what we've already been given. Why should the Holy Spirit give us more of what we're not using? Got Fruit? Yes!

If we can believe in a God that we can't see to save us, then we can believe that the same God will do what he says he will do and therefore we can wait with patience. We can be patient with ourselves and with others. The fruit is in us if we are a child of God; we just need to use it!
