Patience is a virtue. It's one of those sayings that we hear all the time, but one that
holds so much truth. I've been reading about Joseph's life, and how much patience
he had to have to go through the things he went through. But in all things, he was able
to learn perseverance, and stay faithful to God. In each case where he had to endure
the spitefulness of his brothers, the ire of Potiphar's wife, the forgetfulness of the
cupbearer, there's no record of him complaining to God. And in each situation,
he was rewarded by God. It's easy to be impatient, because we're humans, and our
minds are always going, and if there's something that weighs on our mind, then the
days lag, and that impatience creeps in. So... "Let patience have her perfect work, that
ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing." James 1:4.
