PATIENTLY PREACH GOD'S WORD
"Wait on God and He will work, but don't wait in spiritual sulks because you cannot see an inch in front of you! Are we detached enough from our spiritual hysterics to wait on God? To wait is not to sit with folded hands, but to learn to do what we are told." Oswald Chambers
PRAY: Dear Jesus, please give me a good attitude and a Christ-like approach to preaching Your word. I want to be correct and encourage others with great patience and careful instruction, and I don't want to judge others as I'm talking about You and Your word. Fill me with patience so that I can be an effective Christian and not a hinderance or a stumbling block to others. I pray in Your name, Amen.
REFLECT: Do you hear how some Christians often use God's word to rebuke others with judgement, anger or even hate? The Christians in Hollywood often feel that the Church is not "prepared" to encourage entertainment professionals, for they have no patience for Hollywood. Their anger and boycotts only cause an angry and defensive response. How can we be more patient with people we don't agree with, so that we can lead them to Jesus with love, not judgement?
ACT: Have you ever talked against Hollywood or entertainment professionals? Have you thought that Christians should not be in Hollywood because it's evil and destructive? Or do you know anyone who feels that way? Could you look again at Hollywood with more patience and consider that those people need our prayers and our love in order to embrace Jesus? Choose now to help build a spiritual bridge between the Church and Hollywood by your response to the people and the projects coming out of the world's most influential mission field. Ask God to give you love and patience for them.

Every day? Let’s jump in and see what the Lord says about Patience, but don’t be rushed about it! Take your time….
