But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. — Romans 8:25

I’m not good at waiting. But my hope in the Lord makes me more patient than I would normally be. As much as the Lord has given me, I’m sure I can’t even imagine how much more he has in store for me. So, while I wait, I try to keep busy by loving my Heavenly Father and telling others about his grace.

Prayer

Thank you, dear Father, for giving me the patience I need to wait for Jesus’ return. This kind of patience is not in my nature, so I know it must be a gift from your Spirit that lives inside me. Bless my efforts to help people find Jesus and salvation through him. Bless me so that my faith will be strong and last while I wait. Bless my life, not with things, but with godly character, so that my life can be a light for others. In Jesus’ precious name I pray. Amen.
