"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law." Galatians 5:22-23
I may not do them but I at least know what love, joy, peace, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control refer to. But forbearance? Not a typical word I will use throughout the day. Forbearance refers to restraint. Refraining from doing something. Our human nature encourages us to do things we shouldn't. Restraint helps us from doing those things.
Lord, help me to demonstrate all of the fruits of the spirit, including restraint.
