WEEK TWO: LOVE PEOPLE PASSIONATELY
Day Ten
Patience is truly in short supply in this instant gratification culture of the 21st Century. People are so easily angered if there is a queue, the bus is two minutes late, or their Amazon package is delayed. One sure way to undervalue a person is to show a lack of patience towards them. Impatience exalts self and demeans the other.
If you’re an impatient person, you might look to others and believe that patience is something only certain people are born with while others aren’t. The truth is, no one is born patient. It’s something we all have to grow in and practice. Hebrews 5:8 says of Jesus, ‘He learned obedience through what he suffered.’ Patience, as we discussed on Day 8, is a Fruit of the Spirit!
Today, take a moment and ask God to show you areas in which you can grow in patience. Who do you see in your life that displays this fruit? How can you imitate them? (Hebrews 6:12)
Questions/Prompts For Your Journal:
1. How can I display more faith and patience in my life?
2. ASK: God, what are you saying to me today?
