.
We should strive to grow more in the fruits of the Spirit, so that our lives may reflect the fruitfulness of Jesus Christ. The more we abide in Christ and trust the Lord, the more the Spirit will continue to grow the fruits of the Spirit in our lives.
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” Galatians 5:22-23, KJV
When we listen to the Holy Spirit’s wisdom and follow His leading, it can make the goodness the Lord shine through us. The fruits of the Spirit all work together to help us grow in Christ and shine Him. Our lives shine Jesus when we are fruitful through our words and actions.

Here is a quote from the first chapter in Seeking Life:
“We have to be willing to let the Holy Spirit work in our lives to allow His fruit to grow inside us. Being filled with the fruit of the Holy Spirit means involving God in everything we do.” -Brianna Holifield
When we allow the Holy Spirit to teach and guide us, He grows His fruits inside us to changes us for the better.
The Seeking Life quote continues with this:
“According to Strong’s Concordance, the Greek word for fruit is karpos, which means that everything is done in union with Jesus Christ. The fruit (karpos) is the result of the Lord living through us, transforming us, and showing others who He is in hope that they will also choose an eternity with Him over hell.” -Brianna Holifield
