Patience

Dear Lord please be with us this day and may the Holy Spirit please be guiding us and protecting us from making bad choices as we walk the paths of this day. Please help us use the wisdom of patience and the understanding found while listening to the thoughts of others and considering their cares and motives, values and priorities and trying to determine what forces are driving what I feel, hear, and see. Dear Lord if it be Thy Will may the domination of humble love become more apparent to our patient observance as we seek Your Kingdom, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, and thank You for all of the great gifts and blessings that You have given us, and please forgive our sins as we forgive the mistakes of others, amen. 

Quotation:*
There is one form of hope which is never unwise, and which certainly does not diminish with the increase of knowledge.  In that form it changes its name and we call it patience. -Bulwer-Lytton

KJV*
Ps 37:7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
Ps 37:8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
Ps 37:9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
Ps 37:10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be. 
Ps 37:11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.

Mt 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

1Th 3:2 And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you:

1Th 5:14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
1Th 5:15 See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.
