PATIENCE

"Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. The farmer waits for the precious produce of the soil, being patient about it, until it gets the early and late rains" (James 5:7).
 
Almost all of us are going through some tough times these days--financially, relationally, physically, emotionally, and even spiritually. You may want to quit but the message for us today is, "be patient"--Jesus is coming! Be patient (like a farmer) because the crops are coming. The rain is coming and the harvest is coming. Your deliverance is coming. Lord Jesus is coming with all that He is and all that He does!
 
The word "patient" carries the idea of having an attitude that can endure delay, can bear suffering, and never gives up. Your suffering is for a season--and then it will lift. Be patient!
 
Today, should feel your heart giving up or despairing--close your eyes and remind yourself that Jesus is even now on His way to rescue you. He is coming!
