A Prayer for Patience Father, patience is not something I have naturally, but I know it comes from You. Help me to trust in Your pertect timing and to rest in the knowledge that You are always working, even when I can't see it. When I feel frustrated or tempted to rush ahead, give me a quiet heart and a steady spirit. Teach me to wait with hope and to grow in patience each day as I rely on You. In Jesus' name, Amen.
