The fruit long-suffering caught my attention. Just a few definitions I found that I thought I'd share:



"-Patiently enduring wrongs or difficulties.

-Enduring or capable of enduring hardship or inconvenience without complaint: forbearing, patient, resigned.

-Patiently enduring continual wrongs or trouble" (http://www.answers.com/topic/long-suffering)



I find it interesting, because all the other fruit are positive: Love, Joy Peace, Kindness, Goodness, Self-Control, etc.



Long-suffering-- Patience means that there will be problems in our life. How these problems are handled can show whether God is living in us.
