“Do you have the patience to wait until your mud settles and the water is clear?”

“Do you have the patience to wait Till your mud settles and the water is clear?Can you remain unmovingTill the right action arises by itself?”

“Be patient and wait. Your mud will settle. Your water will be clear.”

“one day you stepped in snow, the next in mud, water soaked in your boots and froze them at night, it was the next worst thing to pure blizzardry, it was weather that wouldn't let you settle.”

“You won't be strong until you have the patience to carry out your sadness alone”

“Patience is a process of perfection. The Savior Himself said that in your patience you possess your souls. Or, to use another translation of the Greek text, in your patience you win mastery of your souls. Patience means to abide in faith, knowing that sometimes it is in the waiting rather than in the receiving that we grow the most. This was true in the time of the Savior. It is true in our time as well, for we are commanded in these latter days to “continue in patience until ye are perfected.”
