Fruits of the Spirit Lesson 2
by Lisa
(Hopkins, SC)
In our free Bible Study on the Fruits of the Spirit, we broke down each of the 9 fruits, one by one. In lesson 2 of our Bible study, we talked about love, joy, and peace.
Here are Lisa's Response to that lesson...
Q.1 Why do you think that it is significant that Jesus uses the action verb Agapao to describe the kind of love that the Holy Spirit wants to develop inside of you?
Because love is an action word it involves saying as well as showing love.
Q2 Why do you think God tells you that His joy is what acts as your strength during trying times? Can you think of a time when His joy kept you strong?
Because if we have joy we know that God is able to bring us out of what ever situation we are in. Joy is not based on happiness it is based on who God is in our life.
Q3. Why do you think so many Christians today struggle with receiving and maintaining God's peace? Do you feel that you have a problem maintaining your peace?
We allow the things we go through to be in control rather than giving it all up to God. It is he that handles everything we may encounter.

Joy and overcoming depression
Good evening its a pleasure to see that someone responded to my cry. Immediately my shoulders felt a little relief. This morning I woke up and said to myself let go and let god. Listened to spiritual uplifting music to my mind, body and, soul. putting behind or attempting to put behind the things that I cannot change of fix immediately. Today was not so devastating but im holding on and i know that my body will be healed its just a matter of faith and patience. now im looking into the next lesson. all feel free to email me Bnitenurse@aol.com. Im also studying the fruits of the spirit. which i know will help me in my healing process. |

Depression is not God's Will for you
Hi Brendadette, My name is Ameerah and I am the author of most of the Bible studies here at The Hem. I wanted you to know that you are not alone. One of the enemy's most overused tricks is to try and steal our joy because God's Word says that the joy of the Lord is our peace. If you are really struggling in this area, I would really recommend our short study Waging War Against Christian Depression. I really think that it can open the door for God to begin working His healing power in this area of your life. God Bless!
