What is the fruit of righteousness? It is the fullness of both grace and truth. The exemplifying of the simplicity of love for one another without compromise of personal integrity toward God and His statutes. The ability to walk out the holy life yet being attractive to those who are indeed unholy. To be unwavering in our convictions yet to wear those convictions not condemningly but humbly and in such a way as to lead people to see God as irresistible.
Matt 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
Our good deeds or behavior is not the bulls eye but doing good in such a way that the Father in heaven is credited is the goal.
APPLICATION
I will seek the Lord to lead me to perpetrate a secret act of random kindness today. I will be on guard and ready to serve Him in this way.
