TOPIC: BECOMING A BETTER YOU (4)
Again, beloved, if you must seek to become a better version of you in life, another irrefutable trait you must possess is patient. Yes, be patient. You see, things don’t always happen the way we would like them to, and that’s great! But rather than getting upset when things don’t go your way, take a deep breath, wait and learn to be patient. Patient is one of the cardinal virtues of life, and a fruit of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22). Any wonder, the apostle Paul encouraged us in Romans 12:12, and he said,
SCRIPTURE: Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. (Romans 12:12 NIV)
REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: The truth is, life could be slower. So, we need to be aware of that, and try relishing those slow moments. That your plans didn’t work out the last time, doesn’t mean it won’t work out again the next time. All you need to do is to be patient at it, calm your nerves, re-strategize and give it another shot. Hopefully, this time around, it will surely come through. Stay Refreshed!
NOTE THIS: Every waiting season has its lessons, acknowledge the positives in the process.
RESPONSIBILITY: So, do not let your passion go down; keep your spiritual fervor, hoping and serving the Lord (Rom 12:11).
PRAYER: Oh Lord, You’re my God. Give me the grace to be patient in life, in Jesus’s name, Amen!
PROPHETIC WORD: As you learn to be patient, may you begin to experience a greater version of newness in your life, in Jesus’ name, Amen.
BIBLE TEXTS: Romans 12:11-12
