Please pray for one of our two pastors. We attend a very small nondenominational church. We have wo pastors that both pastor the church for free because they feel led to do it. One of them, Bill,has just found out he has cancer of the esophagus. He is a very vibrant part of our church and truly loves the Lord.

Are you sure you want to pray for patience? I have a friend that says never pray for patience, pray for strength. If you've never prayed for patience before, you may not realize.

The Pope---who was the one who God used to lead me to salvation---- one time I said to him I'm justing terrible things happen in our lives & more than I sometimes think I can handle-----he said are you praying for "Patience"--- I said well yea I am-----he said well if you want things how they are keep praying for patience-----if you want things to change pray for peace & strength------I did!!!!!!!!!

I need strength , but patience right now would be good too!!!

Patience defined: quiet, uncomplaining endurance under stress or annoyance, tolerant, tender, or forbearing, capable of tranquiltiy awaiting resluts.

So yes, it is certainly patience I need more of!!!!

I prayed for patience was and it was a rough row to hoe. But then we're all not on the same part of the journey.

The problem with praying for patience is that the only way to learn patience is through trials. When you pray for patience, the trials come a rollin' in! I also need patience...I'm just scared to pray for them..LOL!

When I was pregnant a lady told me not to pray for patience but ask God to help me to wait.
