Well, I thought last night's post was the last before my trip to the lake, but I got clobbered with another 'coincidence' (hello Holy Spirit!) this morning. I mentioned in "Commencement" the sevenfold gifts of the Spirit. Then this morning, Rev. Joanna Seibert's "Posts from Daily Something" touched on them as well.
The fruit of the Spirit is presented to us in Galatians 5: 22-23: love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. (I know, that makes 9. All the better). This is the wall of the chapel at Kenyon College in Ohio, where I attended their first spiritual writing conference in 2014. It was a transformative experience.
Lord God, may we all write these qualities on our hearts and pray for your help to live them in our lives. To the glory of your name.
Amen
What beautiful wall art!!
