Love isn’t merely sentimental, emotional or the fruit of our own choosing. God has poured his love into our hearts when we surrender to Jesus Christ. God is the source of love through the spirit and that love simplifies the agenda and curriculum of the spiritual life. Sometimes we take the Fruit of the Spirit and we itemize them, but love is the fruit that produces all these other dimensions, behaviors and dispositions that we find in Paul’s writing. When we receive Christ’s love, we manifest that love by embodying the remaining Fruits of the Spirit.
