We all struggle with operating in the fruit listed in Galatians 5, but God has already told us how to handle the situation.
Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak. Mark 14:38
Be aware of your attitudes and the things that tempt you. Watch your actions and keep them in prayer. Tell the Lord what you're struggling with and he will give you the strength to do the right thing.
