If so, you're not alone. Many people struggle with patience, especially with waiting on God. But patience is a virtue. It's something that God wants us to develop, and it's something that will help us grow in our faith.

What is patience?

Patience is the ability to wait calmly and without complaining. It's the ability to trust that God is in control, even when things don't seem to go our way.

Why is patience important?

Patience is important because it helps us to:

  • Trust God. 

    When we're patient, we're showing God that we trust Him to work in our lives, even when we can't see what He's doing.

  • Grow in our faith. 

    Patience is a fruit of the Spirit, and as we grow in patience, we're also growing in our faith.

  • Be more like Jesus. Jesus was the most patient person who ever lived. He never complained, even when He was being mistreated. If we want to be more like Jesus, we need to learn to be more patient.

  • Be kind to yourself. 

    When you're impatient, don't beat yourself up about it. Just forgive yourself and try again.
