Whoever is patient has great understanding …
Prov 14“The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness …” Ex 34 ⦿ The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
2 Pet 3Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love … Eph 5 ⦿ But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Gal 5 ⦿ For it is commendable if someone bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because they are conscious of God. But how is it to your credit if you receive a beating for doing wrong and endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God. To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps … When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly.
1 Pet 2“In your anger do not sin”: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry …
Eph 4

3 Habits to be Closer to God
Proverbs 31 - 10 Minutes
I like this woman. Her name is Ashley Veigel and she is a “women’s Christian life coach”. But men can learn a lot from her too.
I recommend her because she has, I believe, an overwhelming authenticity. I am struck that she bothers to speak about her faith so energetically in the context of her own difficulties and challenges.
