Peace and Longsuffering (Galatians 5:22)

Peace—it’s finally settling down in a hot tub after sixteen hours of stress at the office. Longsuffering—it’s not biting off the Wal Mart checker’s head after a forty five minute wait in the express lane. When it comes to peace and patience, often that is as far as we get. But when it comes to the fruit of the Spirit, the third person of the Trinity wants to generate something a lot more powerful than hot foam and calmness in line.
