The word patience literally means to be "LONG in suffering." It is interesting that we think it is more acceptable to be impatient, rather than to be unfaithful or unloving. Why is that? There are so many thoughts about patience, such as God's patience with us, our patience with others, and how to be patient in trials. The Word says that God can use our trials to purify our faith and help to produce patience. Patience is not simply waiting, it's HOW we wait and what comes out of us in the waiting. Let's go to the Word and explore the spiritual fruit of patience.
