We have begun looking at the fruit of the Spirit. The first one is Love, the second one is joy, the third one is peace, long-suffering and Gentleness.(we will continue tomorrow with the rest of the fruit). But as you read through these fruits, check your heart to see if you see them manifesting in your life. This is to give you a starting point not to bring you under any guilt or condemnation. John 8:32 You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.
Remember, Romans 12:2 says we are not to be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of our mind so you will KNOW what is good, and acceptable and the perfect will of God.
MEDITATE THROUGHOUT THE DAY:
Psalm 23:2a - "He makes me lie down in green pastures." Meditate on that one line of verse at least five times throughout the day. Ask the Lord to show you how this passage can impact your life.

End of Day 2
If you want to go on, you can. But it is a good idea to work through this in small bites to get the fullness and to build a good habit. Remember it takes 21 days to build or to break habits. I encourage you to wait until the following day to do the next day.
