๐ Fruits of the Spirit: Morning Devotional: Faithfulness (Pistis) Loyalty, reliability, trustworthiness Date: Monday, March 09, 2026 The Foundation “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.” โ Galatians 5:22-23 Today we explore faithfulnessโthe seventh fruit of the Spirit. The Greek word pistis carries a depth of meaning: it speaks of trustworthiness, reliability, and steadfast loyalty. Faithfulness isn’t just about keeping promises; it’s about being the kind of person others can count on, day after day, in the small things as much as the big ones.Gentleness: Strength Under Control

Gentleness: Strength Under Control When we think of gentleness today, we might picture someone soft-spoken, timid, or easily pushed around. But biblical gentlenessโGreek word prautฤsโpaints a different picture entirely. Biblical Gentleness: Strength Under Control In the ancient world, prautฤs described a wild animal that had been tamed. Think of a powerful horse or fierce lion that had learned to respond to its master’s voice. The power was still there, but it was now purposeful rather than destructive.Daily Word: March 08, 2026

Love is the root, the foundation laid, The tender mercy that never fades, It gives and gives without a trace, A reflection of the Master’s grace. Joy is the sunshine after rain, A steady hope that nullifies pain, Not based on what the world may bring, But rooted in the eternal King.Fruits of the Spirit: When Love Meets a Broken System
