Galatians 5:22-23 "But the Fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control." This first and probably most important of these is..
Love. We all know what love is, but it's sometimes hard to define. Society sometimes defines love in twisted ways that the Bible isn't going for. The dictionary defines love as "an intense feeling of deep affection," which I find a much better definition.
Love the Lord with all your heart, strength, soul, and mind. Love your neighbor as yourself. These are just a few of the ways the Bible tells us to love. He loves you more than you could ever imagine. He created us to love.
Sometimes we feel that it is good enough to "not hate" someone. While in some cases, this is a step forward, we should not stop there. We should show love towards those people.
So show someone you love them. Tell someone you love them or that you appreciate them. Or show someone you love them in a non verbal way. Go forth and love!
