Patience





But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.

~Romans 8:25 (NIV)

“He who is coming will come and will not delay.

~Hebrews 10:35-37 (NIV)



Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when men succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.

do not fret—it leads only to evil.
For evil men will be cut off,
but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.

he turned to me and heard my cry.

~Psalm 40:1 (NIV)
