Patience is Best

Dear Lord please be with us this day and please may Your Holy Spirit be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and blessings and protection that You give us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.
Dear Lord please give us patience and wisdom as we tread the paths of this day and please prevent us from acting in haste when patience and being slow to act would be wiser, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, 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
