images(49).jpgPatience can be seen as one fruit of the holy spirit which is stated in Gal 5:22-23.I ask a question what is the true definition of patience,the ability to wait without complaining and if such definition is correct it then implied when you wait for someone who can decide to get in creational activities like watching movies and reading book it does mean that patience because it doesn't involve discomfort. Take an example of Jesus,he had to be patience with his disciples sometimes they were annoying ,Jesus new their weakness and their unbelieve as human being it does mean that Jesus did rebuke them for lack of faith.Jesus did that because of the love of God,what Jesus did was to complaint,in other words,was Jesus to address the issue without grumbling. However having patience is a very difficult because against our own desires which is selfish,when put our egocentric attitude over the needs of other . take for example,when you are a traffic jam and normally it is slow because,you refuse to yourself in such person shoes you then want to overtake the person because, of your impatient. Let talk about patience with God,sometimes in our life we prayed about some certain issues in our life like life partner,job,disease it seem that solution are not forth coming you then doubt God and start looking for other means .the truth God will satisfied our desire if such desires align with his will but sometimes it is OK to complaint especially when the situation is at it zenith of life,such complaint is done out of frustration.it is usually a petition prayer to God,the prayer usually acknowledge God power over our problems just like in Psalm 10:1,142:2,44:24,88:15-18,it was prayer to provoke God to action.Jesus did the same in his death and crucifixion to show the extent of his suffering thus been patience bring more quality like humility and generousity,the ability to bear boredom situation always take patience and challenge in our life encourage the attitude of patience. However,there so many your patience, the main point study ,meditate on God's word and pray.images(48).jpgimages(46).jpgimages(47).jpgimages(47).jpg. The source is gotten from Google.
