Patience

For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay. [Habakkuk 2:3]

When you read the word 'patience', we get the picture of sitting in a beach chair with waves tickling our toes, waiting for God to tell you whats next.

Patience is more than this.

Picture yourself as a stone statue carved into the mountain as the surf pounds you year after year, yet you remain in place. The ability to have this kind of patience comes from having a CLEAR VISION OF GOD.

Everyone experiences questions and doubts, but as we follow this path we begin to get a clearer picture. Its no more an abstract painting. the lines make sense. the squiggles give meaning. We soon become like the statue in the ocean. nothing can push us of our path. nothing can break your will. its that kind of patience that makes you stronger.

ah yes, He is faithful. strength to the weary? hope to the hopeless, love to the.. unloved :)
