Daily Devotional- The Gift of Patience
“I waited patiently for the Lord to help me, and he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along. He has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what he has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the Lord. Oh, the joys of those who trust the Lord, who have no confidence in the proud or in those who worship idols.” – Psalm 40:1-4
Waiting isn’t a curse. It’s a blessing. Patience is a gift from God.
When we wait patiently on the Lord, He will hear those prayers and answer them. Our waiting on Him builds our strength and trust in Him and will help with sharing our testimony with others. Our Patience show God that we trust Him with our whole life and He rewards faith like that in big ways.
