Fruit
Are the fruit of the Spirit still important today? Fruit, by Alabaster, is the perfect guide to help you experience the fruit of the Spirit in a fresh way.
Insightful, Encouraging, Inspiring
The photography is stunning, with stark contrasts between the colors for each fruit. There are many textures on display, giving each photo a distinct feel and quality. The devotional reads are insightful, encouraging, and inspiring.
I was most moved to see peace as a fruit that is deeply rooted. I often think of peace as something that comes in response to situations. Alongside tranquil yellow photos, I learned that peace is something deeply rooted, and tied to the presence of justice – and ultimately found in Jesus.
Grow in Christlikeness
I was most interested to see how to have a better orientation towards kindness. With cool blue photos, I saw how kindness is related to the virtues of empathy, charity, and grace. I learned to look towards the interest of others.
By reflecting on the fruit of the Spirit, we are taught to slow down and focus on our spiritual lives. It is a call to grow in Christlikeness. You will find refreshment as you nourish your soul, and you will be helped to bear much fruit.
