Love controls all.
Galatians 5:22-6:2.
Although the works of the flesh are many, there is one fruit of the Spirit. In Galatians 5, St. Paul teaches the difference between working the works of the flesh (our own desires) and living and walking by the Spirit (God). Doing the latter bears fruit, two of the manifestations of which are joy (χαρά) and peace (εἰρήνη). Both are eschatological, meaning they come at the end. In the meantime, we are called to love with the love of Christ himself, who is gentle (πραΰς) and whose yoke is easy (χρηστὸς).
