The Growing of Fruit

So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. For the sinful nature desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature. They are in conflict with each other, so that you do not do what you want. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under law.
Galatians 5:16-18

Character

Above reproach. Faithful. Temperate. Self-controlled. Respectable. Hospitable. Not given to drunkenness. Not violent but gentle. Not quarrelsome. Not a lover of money. Manage his own family well. Not conceited but humble. Good reputation with outsiders. Able to teach. Thirteen character and one skill. It is not about the achievements or talents one have. It is more about the temperament and personality that make up an upright person. "The real measure of wealth is how much you'd be worth when you lost all your money" - Bernard Meltzer
