Author Description

We receive the Holy Spirit when we become a child of God and as Christians we need to learn to walk in the Spirit. The Fruit of the Spirit is a refreshing and unique collection of poems that equip believers to know who we are in Christ and to walk in the power and authority of the Spirit. Each chapter introduces an insightful selection on an aspect of the nine virtues of the Holy Spirit. The poems add a practical dimension and application for believers seeking to know and grow and become more Christlike. The extraordinary way in which the poems are arranged, elucidates how essential it is for the indwelling presence of the Spirit and to develop these characteristics. The Fruit of the Spirit will motivate Christians to flourish, mature and be in tune with the Holy Spirit, drawing from the Spirit's life-giving power [John 7:37-39]. Read and be inspired to keep on living for Christ. In spite of adverse circumstances, being furnished with the Fruit of the Spirit will help us to persevere for the ultimate goal of eternal life in Christ Jesus. na Crawford in her first published book of poems heralds the message of the poignant need to reignite the virtues of the Fruit of the Spirit.
