I am patient and confident, for I know God is at work in my life.
Living
in an age of rapid communication—text messages, live news broadcasts,
and more—is convenient. Yet, when I have to wait for other things, such
as a package to arrive, or the work week to finish, patience is
necessary. A seed cannot be rushed no matter how eager or how fervently I
long to taste its fruit. If I find myself impatient or forcing an
outcome, I pause to observe my intentions and actions. I rekindle my
faith by shifting my attention toward confidence in God’s perfect
timing. I remind myself that things will work out in the right time and
the right way. Patience gives me peace of mind in my daily activities and for my long-term goals and dreams.
These are the ones who, when they hear the word ... bear fruit with patient endurance.—Luke 8:15
