Greater Nation: Spiritual Health Check-up! Each of us schedule annual preventive maintenance visits to the doctor to ensure good physical health. These checkups make sure everything is working properly and that we don’t have an unknown serious internal condition. The same is true with our spiritual health. As creatures of habit, at times we go through life on autopilot. And as a result, we sometimes miss clues that indicate our spirit is not enjoying the good health that God created it for. This week meditate on the following: “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.” (Galatians 5:22-23) Each ‘fruit’ is a characteristic of the Holy Spirit’s active presence in our daily activities. Let’s do a diagnostic check on each one to ensure that we are healthy and bearing good fruit: 1. LOVE--This love doesn’t refer to warm feelings but to an intentional attitude of good will and devotion to others. LOVE gives freely without looking at whether the other person deserves it, and it gives without expecting anything back.
