"But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing."
James 1:4
Thinking about this today, I wonder how much our lives would change for the better if we had more patience. I feel like it would be a dramatic difference, and maybe that is something huge that God has that we don't typically have... that patience and perspective to know that things are going to work out and be okay, even if that isn't true right now.
Let's listen to this advice, and work on our patience, letting it grow in our lives until we get to a point where we feel more whole and confident and satisfied, because we have patience as well as faith, and we know that the happy ending is coming, and that God will help us and answer our prayers. His timeline is different than ours sometimes, but that doesn't mean it is worse. :) Let's trust and have patience today, and keep trying that, and see how our lives improve over time.
