Jesus Christ + nothing = EVERYTHING!!! Galatians 5:22,23

Good morning all!  God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!
   Wow!  God is good, people seeing the good things God does makes ones heart leap.  On this day in 1961 John F. Kennedy made this statement, "ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country."  What a strong statement!!
    Can you change this slightly and recite, "ask not what God can do for you, but what you can do for God?   What have you done in God's name that would bring honor and glory to HIM?
   Galatians 5:22-23 "But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives:  love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.  There is no law against these things!"
  The fruit of the Spirit is the spontaneous work of the Holy Spirit in us.  The Spirit produces these character traits that are found in the nature of Christ; by-products of Christ's control.  We cannot obtain these without Jesus.  In order for the fruit to grow in us, we must join our life to Jesus'. (John 1:4,5)
  ⁴ In him was life; and the life was the light of men.⁵ And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
  The darkness or evil can never overcome God's light.  Jesus Christ is the creator of life, and his life brings light to humankind.  When we follow Jesus, the true Light, we can walk in a lighted path, missing sin and no longer walking blindly (with no light).
   Here is a formula I heard from a preacher:
                    Jesus Christ + nothing = everything;   Everything - Jesus Christ = nothing.  
Thank you for reading today. Love you all.
In Christ's Love and Grace
