Today I had an interesting conversation with an old friend of mine from high school. I had always thought that I had lived a good life until recently I realized that I was living a fairly "normal" life. God changed my life and today I got a look at what my life used to be. I talked to this friend and we got into the subject of partying. I told him I never really was the type to go to parties. His response to my comment took me entirely by surprise. He told me that he always thought I was a partier!
After he said that, I sat in shock. I always thought I was a good little Christian girl. Obviously I wasn't living as an example for the Lord.
I think we all have been through times when we were not producing the fruit of the spirit (love,joy,peace,patience,kindness,goodness,faithfulness,gentleness, and self-control). I challenge you, as well as myself,  to pray over these fruits. That they would grow abundantely in your life and be visible to those who you associate with.
