How do we become more like Christ? Well, it starts from the inside-out. The fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—isn’t something we force through willpower. It grows in us as we live by the Spirit and learn to keep in step with His leading in everyday life.
And part of that journey is surrender—acknowledging we don’t have it all together, letting go of old desires, and allowing God to reshape us as we follow Jesus more closely.
