Welcome to Daily Growth Point, I’m Pastor John Bingham.

Each year, my wife and I spend time planting and cultivating a garden. We love to see the bare ground of the winter transform into a beautiful harvest in the late summer. When you sit down to a table filled with food that has been planted, cultivated, and gathered with your own hands, it becomes its own reward.

As Christians, God calls us to plant the seed of surrender by walking in the Spirit. This heart of surrender yields a fruit that is bountiful in its return.

Galatians 5 says that the fruit of the Spirit is “love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance.”

Today, God is calling us to plant the seed of surrender so that we might yield the fruit of the Spirit in our lives.
