Be Patient In Tribulation

Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.  

Romans 12:12

It is difficult to patiently trust God when things go wrong.  I don’t know about you, but my impatience shows as a scowl on my face and snapping at people who have nothing to do with my situation. 

Then like a slap in the face, I remember God’s promise to take care of me.  There is nothing like a few minutes in prayer to help me get a grip on my emotions, and focus on behaving in a Christ-like manner and showing the love of God to others. 

No matter what happens, we have this hope: God is on our side.
