Growing Steadily📈: Practical Application

Choose a "FOCUS FRUIT"~ Select one attribute of The Spirit at a time( ex: one per week, bi-weekly, or per month) to intentionally learn about. Gentle Reminder: Our action part is to "yield" and "abide", Holy Spirit, "produces" the fruit in us. Visit our prayer page and search for Morning "Abiding" Prayers~ these prayers are specifically designed to help start your day surrendering to Holy Spirit guidance,  rather than rely on self-effort. Blessings Always, Fred & Kisha.🙏🏽
