Galatians 6:4 ‘But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.’

We can evaluate our work by considering whether

we are producing the fruit of the Spirit in our life;

or if self is in control

so that our good deeds are only works of the flesh.

When the love of Christ is our motivation

then our rejoicing is not in ourselves;

or in our works;

our rejoicing is in Christ.

It is His life; His love; and His power that works in us.

We know we are born of the Spirit of God

when our heart is filled with compassion

for those who Jesus died to save;

and His joy and peace fill our innermost being.
