May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patience of Christ.
The patience of Christ ...  One of the most hurtful tendencies of the current era is that toward impatience.  The industrialization of the economy with its invariable emphasis upon speed and speedy results, and such things as the mad quest for a constant state of euphoria, have led even many Christians into a loss of patience.  Jesus said, "In your patience possess ye your souls" (Luke 21:19 KJV); and, alas, there are many who, through a burning impatience, no longer possess their souls.  The constant aching for diversion, novelty, excitement, euphoria, etc., is as destructive an influence as may be found in the world today.  The Christian life is not one unending stroll down some shady, flower-festooned pathway; but it is a struggle against all the erosive elements of time, against sorrow, and temptation, and at times even against boredom; and patience is the only stabilizer powerful enough to enable an effective completion of the conflict.  "Add to your faith virtue, knowledge ...  PATIENCE"  (2 Peter 1:6).
