Taking a moment to reflect in gratitude. You know, the nature of fruit is given-ness. The fruit tastes good, it is attractive within its surroundings, and ultimately allows for its own reproduction. So when God’s Spirit is growing fruit within a person, that person ultimately draws others to God, and allows for his Spirit to grow in them as well.
My kids, you are incredibly blessed to be surrounded by so many who are faithful in the given-ness of being fruitful.

Father, thank you for surrounding my kids with those who nurture godliness within them. I ask your blessing of continued fruitfulness in the lives of these beautiful servants as they allow your Spirit to grow. Father, I pray that our kids would be fruitful as well- that they would nurture your Spirit faithfully, that they too would bless others with the love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control that come only from you. #prayersformychildren
