9 Fruit Spirit Salad

Someone offered me a taste 
of what they call fruit spirit salad 
It wasn't made with oranges or grapes 
and it didn't tempt my palate 

This salad was made of fruits of what we call the spirit 
So listen carefully my friends, you might just want to hear it 

They told me it all began with (love) and they sprinkled in some (peace)
poured in a little (patience) and added (joy) to the feast 

Stirred it with some (kindness) and little (self-control) 
use (faithfulness) and (goodness) to sweeten up the bowl 

Spice it up with (gentleness) to kick it up a notch 
The love that comes from God is what you really got 

BAM!!!!

enjoy life ;)



K.J.V 

Galatians 5:22
5:22  But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, 
goodness, faith,

5:23  Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law

Stink Bug

Have you ever had a black berry bush
Drooping with wild fruit that you were hungry for,
Only to be driven away by
A swarm of wasps encircling its briers?

Have you ever picked up a plum off the ground
Because it was red and plump beneath its tree,
Only to turn it around and see
An army of ants eating the other half?

Have you ever picked a muscadine from a vine,
Popped it in your mouth without carefully inspecting it?
Then afterwards realized that 
A stink bug had left its scent on it?

That what it's like to be in a love relationship 
With someone who's in love with someone else.
You expect to have the sweetest juice, the firmest texture;
But as soon as the fruit is pressed, you make unpleasant faces,
And you spit and spit and spit and wipe your tongue on your shirt
Telling the one next to you of your unfortunate event, warning them 
To be as cautious as you will before the next pick.
