patience...patience is knowing when to do things. and sadly i've been neglecting my skool work...but seriously. i pray for something, and sometimes i can't wait for a reply.
Self- control. I'm praying and I've went through the Seven Steps of Freedom, a program designed by Neil T Anderson to help people break bondages off their lives. His books Bondage Breaker and Victory Over the Darkness are terrific!
right now, need more 'love' if i were to take a certain direction.

Well, first of all I believe fruit is God given and not man-made, so I don't believe I can improve, really, of my own accord or efforts. I know, though, that "abiding in Him" is the condition for spiritual growth of any and all fruit that He chooses to grow in us. To me that means surrender and obedience and spending lots of time with Him. He mentions love alot as being the most important, and if I were grading myself, it's the fruit I'd love to be more evident and abundant in my life. But then, if I were grading myself, I'd grade on a curve.

self control. I have little, if I try to stop myself from sayn/doin something I normally end up doin it all the more!

__________________ The question: "What would you do if you were totally sold out for Jesus?"
Jesus' answer:
“He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. ... He who has found his life will lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake will find it."
A spring of hot water can heal, a spring of cold water can refresh, but a pool of lukewarm water causes sickness.
Are you sold out for Jesus, or just a Christian?
