Everyday Led by the SpiritSample

You know what’s frustrating? You can’t force fruit. And yet, that’s how most of us try to grow spiritually — straining and striving and then feeling shame when we fall short.

You don’t fake fruit. You make space for it.

So maybe the better question today isn’t “What’s wrong with me?” but “Where is the Spirit already growing something good in me — even if it’s still small?”
