"Patience" as a virtue.

Patience can be defined as the quality of being patient. It is the continuous attitude of waiting calmly and not loosing one's temper while waiting OR It is the ability to accept delay, suffering, or annoyance without complaining or becoming angry. Patience as a virtue is very rare among people, it is being able to keep calm even when action is needed.

I do say that to have Patience takes the grace of God... and there is limit to everyone's level of patience.

There was a time this last week, that I kept exercising patience towards some one just because they said no fighting in my school, it was really difficult because I kept seeing this person, but I just wanted to keep calm...

While waiting, I discovered that what I do matters at that moment. Funny how I was praying for this girl 😃😃.. to stop making me annoyed.

Patience is not easy ohhhhh😬😬 I do wonder how people wait patiently to get something and at the end of day they don't get that thing😃

What you do when exercising patience matters because your period of waiting might determine the outcome of the situation which is why I recommend these:

1. Pray first.

2. Keep calm at that moment.

3. Think Before taking any actions towards the situation or person.

4. Don't think too much about it to the extent that it affect your mental health

5. Always respect the final outcome.

Note: That there are sometimes that patience might need you just letting go and moving on with a calm spirt because things might not work out the way you want it to.

Moreover there is also a way of increasing our level of patience which is through continual practice.

Practicing patience is important because it helps you model your character into the best. Remember the proverb that says:

The patient dog eat the fattest bone.

Finally, 1 Timothy 6 vs 11 says But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.

Thank you🥰

See you soon🫠🫠
