St. Paul reminds us in today’s first reading from Galatians 5: 18-25 that “the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control…” . . . ——Is what we are going to do today bearing this kind of fruit? —— . . . Let’s try taking pauses throughout the day to see if we are (or are not) following the Spirit’s voice in our lives. It’s like taking a spiritual temperature check. God is always with us and desiring to speak tenderly to our heart
