A Prayer for Patience Loving God, patience is hard for me, especially when things don't go as I expect. Help me to slow down and trust in Your perfect timing. Teach me to respond with grace instead of frustration, and to see challenges as chances to grow closer to You. Fill my heart with peace as I wait, and remind me that Your plans are always better than mine. Help me to be patient with others, showing kindness and understanding just as You do with me. In Jesus' name, Amen.
