Have been struggling with patience lately, and understanding why I needed to be patient. I prayed about it several times, and found some verses to help me understand it. Patience is a characteristic of Christ, and when we are patient, we are more like him. Being patient makes us stronger. When we are being tested, and putting our hopes and dreams in the hands of God, part of what we are learning is to be patient.
Those who wait on the Lord
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah 40:31
That verse really enforced what being patient means to me. I pray that God will give me the strength and grace to be patient in all ways, and allow Him to guide me in all situations.
