The Character and Fruits of a Christian

Consecration

Romans 12:1-2

1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship.

2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Contentment

Philippians 4:11-13

11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.

12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.

13 I can do everything through him who gives me strength.

1 Timothy 6:6 

But godliness with contentment is great gain.

Courage

Psalms 27:14 

Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD.

Diligence

Romans 12:11 

Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.
