Why settle for less than all?
If you have the Spirit, you have them all.

Ace,
The point is not whether you have the fruits or not, but which
one could you use more of right now. For example, I am a patient man,
but I could probably stand to have a little more patience with you about
your entry. ;-)
Peace,
Richard

re.3 8*)
Ricardo 8*)
I know what you meant.
If you are in fellowship with the Spirit, you have all those fruits
*spontaneously*. The way to get the "fruit" (that is the manifestation of
the Divine Life within) is to be in communion with the Life. Like a grape
branch that doesn't bear fruit, the branch only needs to do one thing. That
is stay connected to the vine. That was my point.
have a nice one,
ace

| I think that this is proving to be a berry fruitful discussion, but
perhaps we need to get to the "core" of the matter. If one is an
in-cider to the ways of the Spirit, it might seem ap-pear-ant that one
can e-lemon-ate many spiritual ills if one merely gr-apples with them
appropriately. But this view may lack some ap-peal.

Let's see right now I could probably use a little Love, Joy,
Peace, Patience, Kindness, Generousity, Faithfulness, Tolerence and
some Self-Control.
But maybe mostly Kindness, Faithfulness, Tolerence and
Self-Control.

| Patience - with my spouse.
Tolerence - of my teenager and her current love interest.
Self-control - to put my brain in gear before putting my mouth in
motion. ;-}
Richard
PS I certainly wouldn't reject more love and joy!
