Being Patient

The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control
Galatians 5:22

A Short Reflection

Can you remember a time when you were impatient?
Bring the moment to mind for a few minutes and recall what was happening, what you thought, how you felt and what you did...


How do you feel now about the event?
Do you regret anything. Are you comfortable with the memory?


Now, imagine the event/situation again. But this time, imagine that you can see Jesus standing beside you. Spend a few minutes running through the situation again from beginning to end with Jesus there at your side.
Will the situation be different in this scenario? How will you react?...


Finish by spending a little time talking with God. Share your feelings and innermost thoughts with God.

May God's blessing go with you.
