There are many rewards that come with patience. The greatest reward is the strength that comes from enduring. What helps you to be patient?
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. (Romans 12:12)
patient: (1) Able to remain calm and not become annoyed when waiting for a long time or when dealing with problems or difficult people. (2) Steadfast despite opposition, difficulty, or adversity. (definition from merriam-webster.com)

I just wanted to say thank you for all of your beautiful posts! You have inspired me many different times! Thanks! 🙂 ❤
Awesome! Thank you so much for reading my posts! 😀
I always thought I was patient, but there were times when my patience was greatly tested and darkness came to torture me, but I kept believing and not giving up and God sure completed what He started. It get’s easier as we learn to fully lean on Him and His plans.
I’m am going through that now. Holding on has been tough but it’s always worth the wait. I actually thanked God for the trials today. I’ve never done that so I’m making progress!
That’s good! I have been doing that lately too, thanking Him for good days and challenges and asking Him to keep me strong as I’m trusting His plan and not mine.
Yes! I owe you an email! I’ve been waiting for the chance to write a proper response. 🙂
When you get a chance. I will patiently wait! 😀
Trials will come but the ability to pray and ask for His guidance and words to use help me. The key there is help! 🙂
His guidance is great help! 😀 Remembering he works all things for our good helps me to follow when he guides.

What helps me remain patient is focusing on my goals.
Yes. I’ve been telling myself to remember the big picture. That always helps me to press on!
I am patient and enduring. But I’ve noticed when I pray for patience mine is always tested so I pray for grace! Then I am steadfast in my heart and spririt to make it through! 😀
That is true. My patience is always tested when I pray for it. I don’t think I have ever prayed for grace. I need to start doing that!
