Proverbs 14:29
On Being Patient
29 Whoever is patient has great understanding,
but one who is quick-tempered displays folly.
Patience is a virtue...But I am not blessed with this virtue...I often want things done in my time frame and not My Father's...Godspeed is always the perfect time for all things...
The author Helen Steiner Rice has a poem on patience...And I believe her poem below on patience is very good advice:
“God, teach me to be patient, teach me to go slow,
Teach me how to wait on You when my way I do not know...
Teach me sweet forbearance when things do not go right
So I remain unruffled when others grow uptight...
Teach me how to quiet my racing, rising heart
So I might hear the answer You are trying to impart...
Teach me to let go, dear God, and pray undisturbed until
My heart is filled with inner peace and I learn to know Your will.”...
