Patience! patience! you are always in a hurry, but God is not. --C.H. Spurgeon
  1. Patience with each other
“I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love,” (Ephesians 4:1–2, ESV)
  1. Patient to receive God's promises
“so that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.” (Hebrews 6:12, ESV)
  1. Love is patient
“Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant” (1 Corinthians 13:4, ESV)


  1. Patience in suffering
“For this is a gracious thing, when, mindful of God, one endures sorrows while suffering unjustly. For what credit is it if, when you sin and are beaten for it, you endure? But if when you do good and suffer for it you endure, this is a gracious thing in the sight of God. For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps. He committed no sin, neither was deceit found in his mouth. When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten, but continued entrusting himself to him who judges justly.” (1 Peter 2:19–23, ESV)
  1. Patient as we wait for the Lord's return
“Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.” (James 5:7–8, ESV)
