” BUT IF WE HOPE FOR WHAT WE DO NOT YET HAVE, WE WAIT FOR IT PATIENTLY.” ROMANS 8:25
We have a patient God. He has proven time and time again just how patient he is. I know that in my own life the Lord has been and continues to be patient with me. Even though I go to him daily in prayer and include in my thoughts and prayers throughout the day I continue to make unwise decisions, sometimes say words that are not in line with his thoughts, and sometimes listen to the world and get overanxious and worry about the things going on around me. I sometimes find myself doing things that the world requires of me rather than listening to Him and doing things he requires of me. With all of the mishaps I have going on each day I am able to go to him, repent and ask for forgiveness. He picks me up and continues to love and secure me tightly in his presence. He is patient with me and never waivers from his patients. You and I are to be patient as well. As we pray for our families, our friends, our great country and ourselves, we must be patient in the things we hope for. We must put complete trust in the Lord that he will answer us. It may not be as quickly as we may like but we must continue to believe and trust in his ways. He never fails. He has a plan, and we must recognize his patience within his plan. The only way we can do that is by our total commitment and trust in him. It is important that we study his holy word every day and stay connected to him. When we do he is always there for us! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
