The spiritual fruit is the  is an observable measurement that the Holy Spirit  is operating and intermingling with our spirit.  The fruit of the Holy Spirit is our measurement to how spiritually connected we are to Jesus Christ.   

The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, and faithfulness.  Some of the qualities could be in our own personality. There is a big difference is that the fruit grows out of our relationship with Jesus.  For example, the difference is that kindness is not limited to only people we like but it is a supernatural kindness extended to all people.  Peace of mind is not only there when circumstances are good, but the peace exits when circumstances are rough and even unbearable.  The amount of fruit in our emotions, will, and behavior is a measurement and a proof that we are indeed following the Holy Spirit and not a spirit counterfeit.
