Not all “spiritual fruit” comes from God’s Spirit. 1 Timothy 4:1–5 warns against chasing spiritual “badges” or performance, reminding us that true gospel fruit overflows with gratitude, humility, and love—not pride, comparison, or legalism. Spiritual practices should foster thanksgiving and unity, not envy or self-promotion. This week, trade striving for gratitude, and let the Spirit’s fruit show in your ordinary, thankful life.
