Lately, I have been questioning not just the content of my life but also the tone.

Is it possible to have all the correct answers and incorrectly live them?

The fruit of the Spirit of God is not anger, aggression, or arrogance. The voice of the Spirit through our lives is not loud, constantly confrontational, or out of control. This life contains very little shouting, commotion, or growling at other people.

Paul writes to the believers in the region of Galatia, and he states, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, (23) gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.” (Galatians 5:22-23)

The fruit of the Spirit in our lives has a pleasant sound. There are smiles, laughter, and quiet tones. People are kind to one another, love abounds, and behavior is controlled.

Being a follower of Jesus means we will see Godly behavior in our actions, and it will also be heard in our tone.
