from naked fruit

"Resist the urge to glitz, spin, and alter your life's advertisement for Jesus. The fruit of the Spirit is wrapper enough for the truth of God's character extended to us... Think naked fruit. Just fruit. That's how God intended nature to reveal his being, and that's how he wants us to represent him as well."

-from Naked Fruit by Elisa Morgan, President and CEO of MOPS International

I could try to elaborate on that thought but I'd just, in typical jill-style, end up babbling on and on. I'll just say how freeing those words are to me... the idea of showing the fruit of the Spirit to the world, while still being me.
