patience...my closest friends know that it is definitely not one of my strong points.
during Daniel's fast, I realized HOW impossibly (for me to grasp), incredibly and unbelievably patient God is and Has been with me...and how in return...I often am the complete opposite. almost to the point where I know it's an issue and yet i sound like, and I quote, "God give me patience, and give it to me NOW!"
Though I am more patient for the things of less interest to me... or in certain situations where the benefit of waiting or being patient outweighs the consequences of being impatient...God shows me that He is patient in ALL areas, especially and specifically to that which matters most to Him (in my case this would be the hardest to do). My/Our relationship and Love towards Him.
God provides the Way and possibilities
Romans 8:25
But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently.
Romans 12:12
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
