Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God’s will. Then you will receive all that He has promised. Hebrews 10:36
Patience is a trait evident in a person of strong character, so this is certainly an area of my life that needs drastic improvement. I still get frustrated on my 20 minute commute between home and the office when traffic backs up. I sometimes expect too much out of my oldest son who is only four years old and am definitely impatient when it comes to writing new business at work.
The above verse from Hebrews confirms that we cannot have endurance or perseverance without developing some patience first. As a follower of Christ, our faith will be tested, time after time. As we pass each test, we will develop more patience, which will result in greater strength when we are tested again.
It’s when we are patient that we eventually receive the fulfillment of all that God has promised us. Thanks be to God!!!
