Patience is one of the principle things in life, although

sometimes patience is as bitter, as hard, as unbearable

as death. Sometimes one would prefer death to patience.

But is it of the greatest importance for the human race to

develop patience in all conditions of life, in all walks of

life. Whether we are rich or poor, high or low, this is the

one quality that must be developed. Besides it is patience

that is all-powerful, and by lack of patience one loses much.

Very often the answer to one¹s prayer is within one¹s reach,

the hand of Providence not very far off, and then one loses

one¹s patience and thereby the opportunity.

 

Therefore impatience, in whatever form, is to be avoided.

It makes one lose one¹s equilibrium, and when that is

lost, nothing can be accomplished. There is no gain to be

had from impatience; yet patience does not necessarily

mean sloth, negligence, or laziness.
