The Holy Spirit lives in me.

The Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
Question of the Day: What is one thing God says about you?
Read about It
Read: Ephesians 4:30
What is the most valuable thing you own? Did you know that God sees you as far more valuable than the item you just thought of and even more valuable than the most valuable object in the world?
Ephesians 4:30 talks about how God has called all Christians “his own.” You are a child of God, and He loves You! He has forgiven you of your sins and you have been given freedom and salvation through Him. The gift of salvation is the most amazing and valuable gift you will ever receive.
As you choose to live for God and daily grow in Him, there may be some things in your life that need to change. Your life should reflect God’s love for you and for all people. As you live for God, you turn away from the things that produce bad fruit in your life and you turn toward things that produce the things listed in the Faith Verse.
