What is Patience?

Extreme avoidance
of submitting to a wait.
- Clearly Impatience.

Silently waiting,
Even though, roiling within.
Is that real patience?

Avoid long wait tasks,
But calmly endure forced waits.
Do I know patience?

Patience, a virtue?
Should it be more than neutral?
Where is good in it?

Patience, part of love.
Want to love all my neighbors,
Relate in patience?

Learn patience alone!
Endure: long but needed tasks,
As well as forced waits.

Apply with others!
As we seek understanding,
or forgiveness, thanks.

Remember God waits,
If we are to love as He;
He's patient with us!

Patience

Stress over life's path,
Wastes time to be spent with You.
Let me wait on You.

You have set my path,
Let me trust You to reveal;
Your will, in Your time.

Bind me to Your heart.
Meditate on You alone,
That I may not stray.

Wish for contentment
In this place You have placed me.
Work for Your honor.

Give due diligence:
Work, personal growth, study.
Glory to Your name.
