Ministers of Consolation and Peace.
As children of God we are given in partnership with God in ministry. In a time and world of proclaimed and forecasted shortages, there is one thing there is no shortage of and that is suffering.
Assessing Your Faith
If we apply the definition of virtue to “patience” it is then a good and desirable quality that results in good and moral behavior. James uses three people to describe and exemplify patience. He uses the farmer, the prophets, and Job.
When we begin to see patience as a Godly characteristic, we see why it is an attribute of the fruit of the Spirit.
Be Still and Wait
Waiting and trusting is one of the most difficult things to do when we are stuck in fix it mode, and “I do it myself” mentality. This is one of the reasons it is so hard for people to come into a quiet sanctuary and “Just Pray.”
Hope in Uncertain Times.
Whenever we go through difficult times it feels like the world is coming to an end. I am not minimizing the “End Time’s” for that time is real and is going to come to pass.
