THE FRUIT GARDEN; Camouflage Fruit of Joy
The celebration of Resurrection Day or our Savior Jesus Christ is expressed through colored eggs and a white rabbit. Sometimes a good item is disgusted in a camouflage package. Joy is often given this way. The things in life which give pure joy often seem painful or frustrating to receive; the discipline within raising children, the patience within a romantic relationship, the hours spend on physical labor for the reward of a hobby. Work before pleasure, this statement illustrates the concept when finding pure joy. You know when you have found joy when you naturally smile and laugh throughout all circumstances. As the Apostle Paul expressed in II Corinthians 7:4 I have spoken to you with great frankness; I take great pride in you. I am greatly encouraged; in all our troubles my joy knows no bounds.” The apostle James also saw this wisdom as he expressed what pure joy is and looks like when he wrote in the scripture James 1:2-4” Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trails of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produce perseverance.” The wisdom of this Apostle continues to grow and reflect the nature of pure wisdom through the scripture James 3:17 “But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.” As the scripture also express how a mother lets the pain go when given the pure joy of holding her newborn. We can discipline our minds to be more incline to accept this fruit of the Spirit regardless of the package in which it arrives.
