Patience

I have the privledge to doing a Beth Moore Study right now called Living Beyond Yourself. The daily study I just did talks about patience and how scriptually it is the opposite of judgement. What do you think about this?

    Could you give me some examples she used - or more context? This is an interesting question...and I'd love to explore more on my own...just wondering what more she said about this.

    Hmmm..

    that gives me some insight. I was trying to directly oppose patience from judgement...and could not see how they were opposites.

    But in light of what you have said - I can see what you're saying. And concur. That is true of my life as a believer - early on. It was judgement and not patience that I was extending towards others - even other BELIEVERS. Wanting them to be at the same level I was - and easily angered/judgemental when they were not thinking/acting like I thought they should be. And I am in a season of patience now...patience with friends, with the women I invested/invest in, and patience w/ people in the world. wow. WOW. In this moment, I just learned something very profound.

    Thanks Joni for posting about this. Thanks Derek for shedding light and giving clarity. I like learning new things...
