PATIENCE

 

Sirach 1:20-21

A patient man will hold fast until the proper time,
Then afterwards gladness shall burst forth for him.
He shall conceal his words until the proper time,
And the lips of many will tell of his understanding.

Personal Challenge

Patience! Who really wants to learn about patience? We either do not have the time to learn it or the desire to put up with what it takes to be patient. It is indeed a process that takes the rest of our lives, and possibly even the rest of eternity, to truly learn how to be patient. What we so often fail to recognize or remember is that patience brings with it great rewards. We learn how to hold fast with our thoughts and verbalizations until the proper time generating gladness for not putting our foot in our mouths. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, the sinner!
