“Encourage the timid, help the weak, be patient with everyone”- 1 Thessalonians 5:14 (NIV).
What tries your patience? Is it drivers, long lines, career advancement, spouses….? We aren't even patient with ourselves. We want immediate results. We want to know how long something will take before we begin the work. It’s absolutely amazing the patience God has with us and I praise Him because He still looks at us as precious and worth waiting on. God created us to bear fruit. He lovingly prunes us and patiently waits for the blossoms of promised fruit to show (John 15:1-2). Be patient with yourself and others. Growing fruit takes time.
