How do we display the patience that is characteristic of Christ? First, we thank God. A person’s first reaction is usually “Why me?”, but the Bible says to rejoice in God’s will (Philippians 4:4; 1 Peter 1:6). Second, we seek His purposes.
Kwanza, tunamshukuru Mungu. Kwa kawaida marudio ya kwanza ya mtu huwa ni "mbona mimi?", Lakini Biblia inasema tufurahi katika mapenzi ya Mungu (Wafilipi 4: 4; 1 Petro 1: 6). Pili, tunatafuta kusudi lake.
