I’ll tell you something we tend to forget...you and I will never have to be more patient with anybody else than God has already been with us. The Apostle Paul wrote in 1 Tim. 1:16, “That is why God had mercy on me, so that Christ Jesus could use me as a prime example of His great patience with even the worst sinners.” Pray this prayer: “Help me to be patient with others like you have been patient with me.”
