Have you ever heard the words patience is a virtue? Well, you might think it is a cliché, but it is not. Patience is indeed a virtue; be patient. Patience is something you need in life to move forward.

But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives he will produce this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control; and here there is no conflict with Jewish laws. – Gal 5:22-23 [TLB]

Patience is one of the fruits that we see when we are recreated in Christ.

It is patience that will not allow you to hit back your classmate when he/she hits you.

It is patience that will make you overlook talking back to your brother because he said some harsh words to you.

Children, let the Holy Spirit control your life. Let him direct you.

Let us see another translation of our anchor scripture as I conclude this morning.

God’s Spirit makes us loving, happy, peaceful, patient, kind, good, faithful, gentle, and self-controlled. There is no law against behaving in any of these ways. – Gal 5:22-23 [CEV]

It is God’s spirit that makes us patient. If we don’t have the spirit of God in us, we won’t be able to exhibit this all-important fruit.

I hope you have been learning from this topic.

We will continue tomorrow.
