Life can be hard, yet the Fruit of the Holy Spirit is the unchanging characteristic of God that gives us the ability to make it to the end. That's what we're talking about today.

Joy on the other hand, is an attitude and a looking ahead to the prospect of a arriving to a destination that promises Joy, gladness and long-lasting pleasure.
