Reading: Colossians 1:3-6; Galatians 5:22-23

Devotional:
Paul celebrates three fundamental traits evident in authentic believers: faith, love, and hope. These aren't static qualities but should be increasing as we grow in Christ. Faith trusts who Jesus is. Love extends to the undeserving, just as God loved us when we were sinners. Hope anticipates with certainty the promises of God.
These virtues bear fruit in our lives and spread throughout the world. The gospel isn't just changing you—it's transforming communities, cities, and nations. When you grab hold of this hope, fruit naturally grows: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
Reflection: Are your faith, love, and hope increasing or stagnant? How have you seen fruit growing in your life over the past year?

Application: Identify one person who is difficult to love. Pray for them daily this week, asking God to help you love them as He loves you.
