fruit of the spirit

I am sure that if you have been in church long enough, you thought of Psalm 19:14, in its entirety when you read the title of this post. For me its become so easy to repeat the verse “Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.” Sometimes it becomes so easy to wash, rinse, repeat, going through the motions that we forget this statement needs to be fulfilled in our lives. Its not just something we say because we can, or because it is expected of us. These words should be hidden in our hearts that we might not sin against God (Psalm 119:11).
