Spirit Fruit - Day 37

Eat from the tree of life
Relish the Spirit fruit
Absorb the nutrients
That empower your soul

Love your neighbor
Love yourself
Actions speak louder
And talk is cheap

Unspeakable joy
Like a deep spring
That wells up from within
And shares its bounty

Peace that passes understanding
Silent waves of ease
Calm the mighty roaring
Of rivers of unrest

Patient toleration
Judgement free zone
Cause no one has a right
To throw the first stone

Kindness warms the heart
Restoring faith and hope
Negates the hard knocks
That beat us down and out

Goodness - gracious generosity
Not some moral high-ground
A conduit of Spirit
A two way flow

The faithful meet life head-on
They stand through thick and thin
Confront the lies without
And battle lies within

A gentle touch brings healing
And quiets the wounded beast
It crumbles fake pretenses
And opens the spirit-path

When danger rears its ugly head
The flesh fights for control
Compose yourself with deeper breaths
And let the Spirit flow
