Patience is tied very closely to faith in our Heavenly Father. Actually, when we are unduly impatient, we are suggesting that we know what is best—better than does God. Or, at least, we are asserting that our timetable is better than His. We can grow in faith only if we are willing to wait patiently for God's purposes and patterns to unfold in our lives, on His timetable.

I place trust in God, my creator, in all things; I love Him with all my heart.
The further I wake into this life, the more I realize that God is everywhere and the extraordinary is waiting quietly beneath the skin of all that is ordinary.

Yes, God is under the porch as well as on top of the mountain, and joy is in both the front row and the bleachers, if we are willing to be where we are.

When you suffer, don't speak. Look inside and listen for the duaa He inspires in you. and then ask Him. Again and again. Don't stop.
No matter what changes God has performed in you, never rely on them. Build only on a Person, the Lord Jesus Christ, and on the Spirit He gives.
If you say: I believed in God, I trusted God and He didn't come through - You only trusted God to meet your agenda.
He who hopes in God trusts God, Whom he never sees, to bring him to the possession of things that are beyond imagination.
With God in charge, I believe everything will work out for the best in the end.
Faith is not the belief that God will do what you want. It is the belief that God will do what is right.
He who looks sinward has his back to God-he who looks Godward has his back to sin.

If God has made your cup sweet, drink it with grace; if He has made it bitter, drink it in communion with Him.
The Lord works from the inside out. The world works from the outside in. The world would take people out of the slums. Christ takes the slums out of people, and then they take themselves out of the slums. The world would mold men by changing their environment. Christ changes men, who then change their environment. The world would shape human behavior, but Christ can change human nature.
