Be Patient

He who does not learn to be patient Might end up becoming a patient. Patience often makes higher The burdens that desperation Makes heavier. Though patience is sometimes bitter, The fruit is always sweet. Though the mills of God Appears to grind slowly, They always grind better and finer. An ounce of patience Has greater worth Than a pound of force. Chickens come by patiently Hatching the eggs, Not by forcefully smashing them. The believer who waits For God in faith, Never waits for Him in vain. If you can have patience, You can have whatsoever You desire!
