This message teaches that true spiritual growth is shown by the Fruit of the Spirit, especially patience, not just outward religious habits. Using Job’s trials and Jesus’ prayer in Gethsemane, it shows how God uses hard seasons to purify our hearts and build patience. Patience isn’t instantly given—it’s developed through daily encounters with God, enduring trials, and staying submitted to His will. Spiritual growth means our character becomes more like Jesus, not just appearing spiritual. In every season, we are called to "stay in the garden," trusting God's timing and process.
