Galatians 5:22-23 (Contemporary English Version)
22God’s Spirit makes us loving, happy, peaceful, patient, kind, good, faithful, 23gentle, and self-controlled. There is no law against behaving in any of these ways.

As much as we try to make decent behavior outdated, un-cool, or conservative, in the end its just the right thing to do. These behaviors are universal principles that will always work. These behaviors are hard to keep up at times, but the way they imprint ones soul is worth it. I would compare these characteristics to fruits and vegetables. They are already loaded with life giving spiritual, emotional, and mental nutrients that feed the spirit and soul.

As the scripture states, laws were not created to stop these kind of behaviors. The more we start a consistent diet on these attributes and exercise them daily, the healthier our families, communities, and societies will be. Tap into God and allow his spirit to empower you.
