Ephesians 5:6-20 New Living Translation (NLT)
A fruit tree must have Light to bear fruit; about six hours of sunlight daily to produce fruit that is healthy and flavorful. God has created His children to bear spiritual fruit, so we must stay in the Light (Christ) of goodness, righteousness, and truth in order to produce fruit that is healthy and has the flavor of God. We learn what God desires for our lives through study, revelation, and experience in the Word. We do not make the journey alone. The Holy Spirit is available to fill us and guide us on this fruit-bearing faith journey each day. If we allow the Spirit to lead us, we will become sensible, intelligent, and discerning people who are determined to fear (respect) and enjoy fellowship with God (know Him).
