"Patience"

"This is week three of our series on the Fruits of the Spirit. We are going to be talking about Patience. I know this is something I need work on as many of us in this day age do. Being in a generation where you have everything at your finger tips, it can be easy to want everything the moment you think of it. God tells us to be patient as His time is best. Now this does not mean that you need to stop praying for that certain thing, it just means that He will give it to you when He see's fits best. We have to patient with all parts of our lives. For example, when we love people we must be patient because they are not perfect as we are not. As Christians we have to especially patient with non believers, in times were we are being hated we must show love and be slow to anger. Just remember God's timing is the best timing and we need to grow on our faith to be ready for His blessings. "
