Which one?


I have been pondering the Fruit of the Spirit.....
and find that I crave His peace the most.
So many of the wrestlings I have in my flesh
would be done if I walked daily infused
with His Peace.
(Of course,
I could use more patience and self-control,
and probably more joy and
definately more kindess,
and goodness,
lots more gentleness and yep,
love, too. )




John 16:33
"I have told you these things,

so that in me you may have peace.

In this world you will have trouble.

But take heart!

I have overcome the world."


How about you?
What do you seek to walk in more everyday, and why?

Kindness... I can always be kinder to my children, to my husband, and to strangers. I fear too often I'm way to task-oriented to focus being truly kind to others.

Yep, peace and joy are at the top of my list. I have found I can deal with whatever comes if I have these. Thanks so much for this post!

Not in this list, but still applicable: wisdom and humility.

Love, real love, not the superficial stuff, but the love that loves when you'd rather give up. Joy, in Him, I've been studying Beth Moore's book on this with a friend, and it's been inspiring. I truly appreciate your writing, searching for peace and recovery. I have added your blog to my favorites at bythebushel.blogspot.com --Thanks for sharing Louisiana Laura
