Ripe Good Fruit


"Goodness is moral excellence. It involves not just what we do but, more important, what we are. Picture a woman preparing fruit for her family, examining each piece as she slices it to make sure that it is sweet and ripe all the way through, without defect inside or out. Similarly, the goodness produced by holy spirit permeates a Christian’s entire way of life."—Eph. 5:8, 9. w11 4/15 (See paragraph numbered "9")

In other words, spiritual beauty is more than skin deep (what people see on the surface). It is in our hearts (which God can see.)
