Describe patience.<\/p>\n
When is it easy to be patient?<\/p>\n
When is it hard to have patience?<\/p>\n
Ezra's story: "When I was a child, I resented when my mom gave a toy to one of my brothers, and did not get something for me. I felt wronged, and I thought it had been so long since I got anything like that. I would get frustrated by lots of situations like that, and was very angry and wound up.
One day, my dad gave me some advice. He told me not to worry about things I have no ability to change. I thought about the situation, and decided to relax and not let situations take control of me.<\/p>\n
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law."
-Galations 5:22-23 <\/p>\n
