Have you been baptized? If so, you have received God's Spirit (the Holy Spirit)! 

Today, St. Paul lists 9 fruits that indicate the presence of this Spirit; from the list below (taken right from today's First Reading at Mass), take a moment and rate (on a scale of 1-10) how present each fruit is in your life: 

  • Love 
  • Joy 
  • Peace 
  • Patience 
  • Kindness 
  • Generosity 
  • Faithfulness 
  • Gentleness
  • Self-control

Which fruit did you score the lowest?

Holy Spirit, how might I show forth more of this fruit in my life? Amen.
