9 Ways to Display God’s Beauty
By Pastor Jeff
They are ALL found in two verses (Galatians 5:22-23) and ALL challenging to exhibit, but they are ALL propelled by the Holy Spirit. In the midst of an angry, fearful, anxious, pent-up world, God’s irresistible beauty deserves to be put on display by His people.
In what specific ways can you and I let those around us see God’s incomparable beauty?
Love: How can I give what is best for others as the Lord did for me?
Joy: How can I express my settled satisfaction in Christ no matter what the circumstances
Peace: How can I defuse conflict and display a calm, peacemaking heart?
Patience: How can I suffer long with offensive people and avoid being easily offended?
Kindness: How can I display a warmhearted, considerate, and sympathetic spirit?
Goodness: How can I model the quality of moral excellence that is willing to go the second mile with others?
Faithfulness: How can I keep my word and finish what I started with others?
Gentleness: How can I stay even-tempered and teachable around others?
Self-control: How can I keep my passions driven by the glory of God and not my selfish desires?
