Spiritual Virtues

May 30th, 2009 7:27 PM

    Gentleness, kindness, patience, longsuffering, faith, hope, mercy, joy and forgiveness are living precepts. They are called the Fruits of the Spirit, the Holy Spirit or God. When these sacred traits are put into action, you are giving out from your soul where God has promised to meet you, extending Him into the lives of others. The Fruits of the Spirit are Divine vessels of love, delivering the power of God, the power of great Good, the power of Righteousness into all living things.
    Whether it be plant, animal or human, all living things in the Universe recognize the presence of their Maker manifesting through the Fruits of the Spirit and respond to His love. Magnifying these virtues in your daily life, elevates your relationships to a Holy level.
    You have heard it said that you must let God in, but I tell you that you must also release God out - through the Divine Fruits of the Spirit. It is through giving that we are most like our Father in Heaven, and that which we give out should reflect that which we hold most dear within.
    I pray God will replenish your soul as you extend His love to everyone.
