Get the appWhen Waiting Is Hard: Practicing Patience From Jesus’ ExampleSample
Day 1 | What Is Patience?
God made each person in a unique and perfect way. When we trust Jesus and begin following him in our daily lives, he helps us to grow to become more like him—through things like showing kindness, joy, and patience. But what is patience? Does it just mean waiting for something?
Patience isn’t just about waiting for our birthday to come or our dessert to be ready. Patience can also look like trusting God when we’re hoping for something to happen or showing love and kindness to others even when it’s hard. Over the next few days, we’ll learn more about what patience looks like and how to become more patient!
