Fruit of the Spirit

What is the Fruit of the Spirit?

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit" (Galatians 5:22-25).

I think this is a really good verse that sums up how we are supposed to act, to show that we belong to God.

The Merriam-Webster definitions - 

Love: "A feeling of strong or constant affection for a person."

Joy: "A feeling of great happiness."

Peace: "A state in which there is no war or fighting."

Forbearance: "The quality of someone who is patient and able to deal with a difficult person or situation without becoming angry."

Kindness: "The quality or state of being kind." 
(Kind- "having or showing a gentle nature and a desire to help others : wanting and liking to do good things and to bring happiness to others")

Goodness: "The quality or state of being good."
(Good - "Of high quality; morally good forces or influences.)

Faithfulness: "Having or showing true and constant support or loyalty."

Gentleness: "The quality or state of being gentle; especially: mildness of manners or disposition."
(Gentle - "Having or showing a kind and quiet nature: not harsh or violent."

Self-control: "Control over your feelings or actions."

So, someone who has the fruit of the Spirit can and will experience and express love, be kind to others, make good choices, feel peace within themselves and their situations, be patient and gentle, possess self-control, be faithful to God and others, and will find joy in all things.
