Character First Then The Works

The fruit of the Spirit are character qualities, not works, out of these qualities will come works. I just love that thought, the heart is first where it should be and then comes the proper actions and attitudes in response to these qualities.

Galatians 5:22-23
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

Ephesians 2:9-10 "
…9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life"
