On Patience

   Psa 37:7-9   Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret 
   not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because 
   of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. {8} Cease from 
   anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do 
   evil. {9} For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait 
   upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. 

   Prov 15:18   A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is 
   slow to anger appeaseth strife. 

   Eccl 7:8-9   Better is the end of a thing than the beginning 
   thereof: and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in 
   spirit. {9} Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger 
   resteth in the bosom of fools. 

   Rom 5:3-4   And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: 
   knowing that tribulation worketh patience; {4} And patience, 
   experience; and experience, hope: 

   Gal 6:9   And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due 
   season we shall reap, if we faint not. 

   1 Cor 13:4   Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity 
   envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, 
   {7} Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth 
   all things, endureth all things. 

   Eph 4:1-2   I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you 
   that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, 
   {2} With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, 
   forbearing one another in love; 

   Col 1:10-11   That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all 
   pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in 
   the knowledge of God; {11} Strengthened with all might, 
   according to his glorious power, unto all patience and 
   longsuffering with joyfulness; 

   Col 3:12-13   Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and 
   beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, 
   meekness, longsuffering; {13} Forbearing one another, and 
   forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: 
   even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. 

   1 Th 5:14   Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are 
   unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient 
   toward all men. 

   1 Tim 6:11   But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and 
   follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, 
   meekness. 

   2 Tim 2:24-25   And the servant of the Lord must not strive; 
   but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, {25} In 
   meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God 
   peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of 
   the truth; 

   Titus 2:1-2   But speak thou the things which become sound 
   doctrine: {2} That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, 
   sound in faith, in charity, in patience. 

   Heb 12:1   Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so 
   great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and 
   the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with 
   patience the race that is set before us, 

   James 1:3-4   Knowing this, that the trying of your faith 
   worketh patience. {4} But let patience have her perfect work, 
   that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. 

   James 1:19   Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be 
   swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: 

   1 Pet 2:19-23   For this is thankworthy, if a man for 
   conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully. {20} 
   For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, 
   ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer 
   for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God. {21} 
   For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered 
   for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps: 
   {22} Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth: {23} 
   Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, 
   he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth 
   righteously: 

   2 Pet 1:5-6   And beside this, giving all diligence, add to 
   your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; {6} And to 
   knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to 
   patience godliness;
