Prayer for Patience
Introduction
Prayer is a powerful tool that can bring peace, strength, and guidance into our lives. Through prayer, we can cultivate patience, which allows us to endure difficulties with grace and humility, and to live in harmony with others.
Prayer
Dear God, I come to you seeking the virtue of patience. In moments when I feel frustrated or anxious, help me to remember that all things happen in your perfect timing. Grant me the strength to wait, the wisdom to discern the lessons in the waiting, and the grace to accept that some things are beyond my control. Teach me to trust in your plan and to rely on your steadfast love.
May patience be a guiding light in my interactions with others, allowing me to listen more attentively, respond with kindness, and navigate through challenging times with equanimity. When I am tempted to give in to impatience, remind me of the value of waiting and the beauty of growth that comes with it.
