Having Patience like God

Scripture tells us, “But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger and abounding in love and faithfulness” (Psalm 86:15). Since we are to be like God, imagine if we were abounding in compassion and grace, being slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness. Imagine bringing those character traits to every relationship. When we bring those traits to a situation, they are transformative. They change a situation and a person. You are capable of literally changing a situation with your Spirit-filled presence.
