Spiritual Fruit

Opening with the context of Galatians 5. The theme of Freedom, and that Christ has set them free. By following selfish desires, one does not live a free life. Jesus died to make us right, but still people get it wrong, and God loves us so much that He sends us messages to get us back on track. The fruit produced when we are off track vs the fruit produced when we remain in Jesus. Sin nature fights against what the Spirit of God is doing in our life. That is why we need to pick up our cross daily.  Patterns emerge in life that will reveal areas that need to be surrendered. The Fruit is seen, expressed, and experienced in our relationship with God and with people. For you have been called to live in freedom, we want geographical freedom but the freedom we really need only comes from God.
