Anytime He is willing to bestow a blessing on me......I'M READY! I'M WAITING! ANYTIME! Bring it on, Father...bring it on.I think I may be due for a heavenly blessing, so here I am with open arms, foot tapping, waiting for it. (praying for patience, here, could use a little help on this one!) Seems like we all need some patience. Today I read Acts 1:11. Made me laugh out loud, because I'm thinking, "Someday my Prince will come!" BWA-HA-HA!! Sometimes it's tough to get yourself in the right frame of mind regarding what's the most important. Does anyone else have some inspiring verses? Or verses regarding patience? |

I'm right there with you MN. I'm wondering how patient God is preparing me to be. I am SO ready for a change!!! I was on my hands and knees tonight praying for guidance and wisdom and change. I wish a verse would pop into my mind so that I could help, but I need help too. I want to move so badly but my oldest son is really set against it. I need a fresh start. If I find a verse I'll get back on here and share it. |

Read Psalm 138. A pastor that was at my church told me that he felt led to tell me about verse 8 - The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me: your love, O Lord, endures forever - do not abandon the works of your hands.

Patience is defined as "calm endurance". I'm not always very good at the calm part...I worry and don't feel content a lot. The only time I really feel content is when I'm trusting God completely. I was looking back in Psalms and I have a lot of passages marked. Psalm 71:20-21: "Though you have made me see troubles many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up. You will increase my honor and comfort me once again." There are a lot of times where David didn't sound patient either...Psalm 70:5: "Come quickly to me O God. You are my help and my deliverer; O Lord, do not delay." I pray this for all of us: Psalm 67:1: "May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine upon us." |
