"Better a patient person than a warrior, one with self-control than one who takes a city." -Proverbs 16:32 (NIV)
There are times in our lives when we may feel that we need to be warriors. We may feel that we need to fight for what is right and just. While we need to work to show love and to give voice to those that are usually marginalized or quieted, we may need to find different ways to reach our goals. We may need patience!
We are called to be warriors for God, but our idea of being a warrior may need to change. Getting God's message of love to others through force does not show God's true nature. Instead, we need to rely on His love and guidance. We can trust in God's power and timing. Through all of this, we need to have patience and faith in God's Word and in His Promise. We can prepare to be warriors for God by preparing to stand in our faith with patience and perseverance!
Show your commitment to God through patience, perseverance, and faith in His plans!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for having a plan for my life. Help me to be patient and faithful as I follow Your will and timing in my life. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
