"Sure as the world rotates, and
day changes to night
Just as the hands of the clock spin continually,
Just as the hands of the clock spin continually,
I stand still."

One of my favorite patience quotes is taken from Psalm 27:14. "Wait on the Lord and be of good courage, and he shall strengthen the heart."
Patience is an essential character trait that we all need to develop. But waiting for anything to happen drives me crazy. When I want something so badly it's hard to just sit and wait for it to happen. I do realize things happen in the Lords time. This is a such a difficult thing to try to understand, but I am trying. I know that I am where I'm meant to be right now in my life. It may not be exactly where I want, but everything happens for a reason, right? I hope so!

Kates,
I always tell myself to be patient. But i can tell you that I am not a patient person so yes, Patience is definitely a virtue. But Heavenly Father knows what we need and when we need it, even though the need may be wanted right away! Good luck and I hope what you are "waiting' for shows itself SOON!
P.S. it was so good talking to you! Let me know about Tuesday. :)
I'm a lot better about talking about patience than actually practicing it. :) Just know that Heavenly Father knows who you are and what you need. Love you.
Yep, and it sucks, but it has to be what the Lord wants. It's a big struggle for me too. Can't wait to see you tonight girl.
Amen. Patience is so hard...especially when you don't understand WHY you have to wait. I do think, however, that with most things I have experienced this frustration with I eventually have been able to look back and see the wisdom in the timing. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that you get what you want sooner rather than later! Big Hug :)
