The Fruit of the Spirit

A nine-day walk through the fruit of the Spirit — love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control — as the character God grows in us, not the willpower we summon.

This plan is a devotional aid meant to encourage prayer and reflection. It is not a substitute for pastoral guidance, professional counseling, or medical care. If you are carrying heavy grief or struggling deeply, please reach out to your priest or spiritual father, or a trusted pastor or caregiver alongside your prayer time.
