But those who wait upon the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary; they will walk and not be faint. (Isaiah 40:31 NIV)
Who is not tempted to be impatient? I know while waiting in traffic, long lines in the grocery store or waiting on the telephone for help, patience is not what I want to exhibit. I am frustrated to say the least, but I know that waiting, with the right attitude, builds character.
Be Encouraged! We all need strength. If we practice patience in waiting, we will grow and be able to endure when life brings difficulties.
