Verse: “Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.” — Romans 12:12 (NIV)
Prayer: Father, give me patience when things aren't happening as quickly as I hoped. Help me resist the temptation to rush ahead simply because waiting feels uncomfortable. Remind me that You can use seasons of waiting to prepare my heart and shape my character. Keep me faithful in prayer, hopeful about what is ahead, and confident that Your timing is always worth trusting. Amen.
