"Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret." Psalm 37:7
Delays and roadblocks are often there for a reason. Use these times to pray and to slow down, not to indulge in your pet peeves brought on by impatience.
Patience = Love
"Love is never haughty or selfish or rude. Love does not demand its own way. It is not irritable or touchy. It does not hold grudges and will hardly even notice when others do it wrong."
1 Corinthians 13:5
*Taken from Character Makeover.*
