Here's some good news. You don't need to force yourself to be generous. The fruit of the spirit is already inside you because you're a believer. And the nine fruit of the spirit describe the various ways we can be generous towards others.
You don't have to force the fruit of the spirit to appear in your life any more than an apple tree needs to struggle to produce apples. The very nature of the apple tree is to produce apples. If it doesn’t, it’s an indication something is wrong.
Likewise, your new nature is to produce the fruit of the spirit. The more you come to understand what happened in you the moment you believed in Jesus, the more fruit your life will release for others to enjoy. And if you don’t yet see much fruit in your life, it’s worth making a change in your focus.
When you waken to the awareness that it's already inside you, you can simply get your flesh out of the way and let that fruit out. Then generosity will naturally flow from your spirit.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law. — Galatians 5:22 (WEB)
