Sunday 11-13-22 1st. Day Of The Weekly Cycle, Cheshvan 17, 5783 53rd. Fall Day
Patience is a difficult fruit to produce in today’s world where our lives are built around a fast-paced society.
Where from our coffee to our children’s studies has become instant there is no time to breathe because everything has to be “right now.”
As Christians, we are expected to remain cool and calm and carry on but it becomes difficult to persevere with a good attitude.
At those times, we need to turn to the Bible, and search for the verses that talk about patience and facing trying situations with calmness and patience:
James 1:1-4
1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.
2 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
3 Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
4 But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
Proverbs 15:18 “Hot tempers cause arguments, but patience brings peace.”
Ecclesiastes 7:8 “The end of something is better than its beginning. Patience is better than pride.”
