Being patient isn’t always easy. Waiting for your boss to finally give you that promotion after years of hard work. Waiting for your grade to come back after weeks of studying.But while patience is important, being passive and simply waiting without doing the work to prepare may not be the best way to go about it.
This week in our series The Way, James challenges us to move beyond passive patience and learn how to be active in our waiting.
Homework
-Ask God to show you one area of your life where you’re being
passive instead of actively patient.
-Ask Jesus to help you discern what active patience looks like
in that situation
-Put a plan together to strengthen your heart as you wait of
God
