We are to let the Holy Spirit produce His fruit in us. The first 3 are inward, the second 3 are outward, and the third 3 are upward. (I do not make all nine.) Likewise in our Christian lives we are to exhibit fruit as Character (what we are) Conduct (how we act) and Converts (Planting the seed of the Word of God in other lives to produce new life.) Remember, every fruit is a seed carrier - to produce new fruit.
Point:
Fruit in our lives is produced by God, but shown by us.
