Gardening The Heart: Rooted in Christ, Bearing His Fruit

As we go through this book together we will be studying through the nine Fruits of the Spirit listed in Galatians 5:22-23. Through these chapters we will be reminded of the wondrous reality that we have been seized, conquered and bought with the blood of Christ. God the Father has committed to the Son to honor Him by not allowing any of us to be stripped from Christ's grasp. What God has set forth to do, He will finish; and neither life nor death, nor things present or things to come, nor any creature will be able to frustrate His plans or separate His love from us (Romans 8:38- 39).

Let our hearts rejoice and lips pour forth praise, that by God's grace, we are rooted in Christ, that His Spirit has come to produce fruit in our lives, and that the fruit will bring glory to our Father and joyful fellowship with our Savior.
