What fruit of the spirit did you have?

I try to work on all of those, and about once a month that's the Scripture the children and I read before going to bed, and we discuss how we have exhibited those personality traits, or how we could do better. I'm trying to teach them to be self-aware -- Jennie particularly has a difficult time with understanding her feelings -- and we make it kind of a fun game.

I work on them everyday. And yes, I feel that I have them all to varying degress. Although faith was the hardest for me when I was younger. Now it is the easiest.

"The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance,against such is no law. Did you have all these when you were a witness?"
Did I have all the fruits of God's spirit when I was a witness? They were actually my very favorite personal study topic. What the quality is of each one and how I could work on developing them.
LOVE - This is probably the one that I have always had the most of.
JOY - Not as a witness, no. I was robbed on a regular basis of any joy I might have possibly mustered up. This is the one thing I am looking so forward to experiencing in the very near future. How I hope I can finally experience JOY!
PEACE - Not as a witness, no. LONGED for this desperately and hope it's coming to me SOON!
LONG-SUFFERING - Majorly always had this. That's how I stayed in the Borg for so long for my husband and my children while experiencing and witnessing atrocities.
KINDESS - For sure have always had this fruit. I think it always went hand-in-hand with my heart full of love.
GOODNESS - Love, kindness, goodness...again I think all went hand-in-hand for me.
FAITH - As a witness, no. Longed for it, reached out for it, tried to fake it, but always knew in my heart it was alluding me.
MILDNESS - Unfortunately this Irish girl has a big problem when it comes to mildness and self-control. hehehe
SELF-CONTROL - Only when I'm taking my meds faithfully. {big grin}
