“Patience is not the ability to wait but the ability to keep a good attitude while waiting.”

“Patience is waiting. Not passively waiting. That is laziness. But to keep going when the going is hard and slow - that is patience. The two most powerful warriors are patience and time.”

“Waiting for God is not laziness. Waiting for God is not the abandonment of effort. Waiting for God means, first, activity under command; second, readiness for any new command that may come; third, the ability to do nothing until the command is given.”

“Our devotions are not measured by the clock, but time is of the essence. The ability to wait, and stay, and press belongs essentially to our intercourse with God.”

“Real patience is not the same as waiting impatiently for something for a long time. Patience is having patience with patience.”

“Don't wait for good things to come your way, instead do good things for yourself and others while you wait.”
