Holy Bible, compass, and crucifix on a Europe map spread over a rustic wooden table

“Brothers and sisters: If you are guided by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are obvious: immorality, impurity, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, hatreds, rivalry, jealousy, outbursts of fury, acts of selfishness, dissensions, factions, occasions of envy, drinking bouts, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the Kingdom of God. In contrast, the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified their flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also follow the Spirit.” —Galatians 5:18-25

To proclaim the Gospel, we must do more than just speak words with our mouths. The Spirit gives us more than just words; He guides our very being. Living the Gospel is the best evangelization, because then the Gospel is not only heard with the ear but seen with the eyes.

By our actions, we profess what we believe and who we follow.
