A lady told me the other day about her first try making bread. She doesn’t really have time for it. But she really wanted to try: Today, I want to make my own bread. 

In a hurry, she put together all the ingredients, made a dough and put it in the oven. 

The disappointment was immense when she tried the bread. It didn’t really taste good, it was bland. Being impatient she didn’t focus properly and forgot the most important thing: the salt. 

We need patience. The bible knows that. Many things get damaged through impatience. Not only material values can break also relationships suffer under impatience. 

Therefore: take your time. Be patient with yourself and the people around you. Think about it: What’s important in my life today? Tomorrow? In a month? One thing is certain: if you want to know what God wants from you, you have to be patient. Quick answers are often bad answers. 

For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.

Hebrews 10:36 from the Bible
