Hello,
Impatience!
"Rest in the LORD and wait patiently for Him; Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of the man who carries out wicked schemes. Cease from anger and forsake wrath; Do not fret; it leads only to evildoing. " Psalm 37:7-8
Impatience!
Impatience is not a sign of one resting in the Lord.
Instead, we must wait patiently for Him in all that we do.
We're not being patient when we're angry.
We want to be pleasing to the Lord, 2 Corinthians 5:9.
We certainly don't want to experience a personal outburst of wrath. Rather, the Lord wants us to be patient.
As with anything spiritual, patience starts with the heart.
The fruit of the spirit lists patience. It must be important to our Lord.
Patience means to wait for a desired outcome. Remember, the Lord knows our needs and desires. He will provide.
If you're a super-charged Christian, you must wait patiently until you are with the Lord. See 2 Corinthians 5:8.
Patience is a Godly virtue.
Friends, live like the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit live within you. Live in love. Be at peace.
