Good Morning Smoothies and Jesus is a series on Galatians and the Fruit of the Series. We relate to the meaning of each fruits while enjoying a great smoothie recipe.

I really like how this verse is portrayed in The Message:

Galatians 5:22-24 The Message (MSG)
^22-23 But what happens when we live God’s way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard—things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely.
^23-24 Legalism is helpless in bringing this about; it only gets in the way. Among those who belong to Christ, everything connected with getting our own way and mindlessly responding to what everyone else calls necessities is killed off for good—crucified.
