MY BROTHERN, COUNT IT ALL JOY WHEN YOU FALL INTO VARIOUS TRAILS, KNOWING THAT THE TESTING OF YOUR FAITH PRODUCES PATIENCE. ( JAMES 1:2-3 *NKJV )
We all have times in our lives when our patience and our endurance seem to be running low. Times that we may even think that we can’t take it anymore. When that happens to you remember that our Heavenly Father is a; GOD OF PATIENCE AND COMFORT. ( ROMANS 15:5 ) He is always there for us, and will lead us out of our problems if we practice patience.
Now we learn by reading the Scriptures that patience is a Virtue. FOR WHATEVER THINGS WERE WRITTEN BEFORE WERE WRITTEN FOR OUR LEARNING, THAT WE THROUGH THE PATIENCE AND COMFORT OF THE SCRIPTURES MIGHT HAVE HOPE. ( ROMANS 15:4 )
Further by learning about how God has handled things in the past gives us knowledge of how He will handle the future as well. Remember the story of Job and how he endured? The Bible tells us: INDEED WE COUNT THEM BLESSED WHO ENDURE. YOU HAVE HEARD OF THE PATIENCE OF JOB AND SEEN THE END INTENDED BY THE LORD-THAT THE LORD IS VERY COMPASSIONATE AND MERCIFUL. ( JAMES 5:11 )
So never give up, wait patiently and be sure: THAT YOU DO NOT BECOME SLUGGISH, BUT IMITATORS OF THOSE WHO THROUGH FAITH AND PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES. ( HEBREWS 6:12 )
Therefore, MAY THE LORD DIRECT YOUR HEART INTO THE LOVE OF GOD AND INTO THE PATIENCE OF CHRIST. ( 2 THES 3:5 ) and: LET PATIENCE HAVE ITS PERFECT WORK, THAT YOU MAY BE PERFECT AND COMPLETE, LACKING NOTHING. Amen. ( JAMES 1:4 )

REST IN THE LORD, AND WAIT PATIENTLY FOR HIM. ( PSALM 37:7 *NKJV )
In this World today patience is hard to find. After all, we have become accustomed to instant everything, from TV dinners to instant mail via computer. Thus patience has almost become a lost art today!
It is important to remember that patience is a virtue. So whatever you try to accomplish, do it with hard work and patience. For true accomplishments do not occur easily or instantly! For it is written: DO NOT BECOME SLUGGISH, BUT IMITATE THOSE WHO THROUGH FAITH AND PATIENCE INHERIT THE PROMISES. ( HEBREWS 6:12 )
So, always put your trust in the Lord, work hard, and have patience. For the only place where “success” comes before “work” is in Webster’s Dictionary! Also remember that through the patience of many a great man or woman, truly wonderful things have been developed to improve our lives today!
Therefore, MAY THE GOD OF PATIENCE AND COMFORT GRANT YOU TO BE LIKE MINDED TOWARD ONE ANOTHER, ACCORDING TO CHRIST JESUS, THAT YOU MAY WITH ONE MIND AND ONE MOUTH GLORIFY THE GOD AND FATHER OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. And, MAY THE LORD DIRECT YOUR HEART INTO THE LOVE OF GOD AND INTO THE PATIENCE OF CHRIST, and may you have a great Tuesday as well. Amen. ( ROMANS 15:5-6 ) & ( 2 THES 3:4-5 )
