Week 6: A Composite of Peculiar Patience, Day 5: A Clean Slate

Today's Treasure: "Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen." 1 Timothy 1:15-17

Patience with circumstances

Patience with people

No more judging

Forgiveness

Mercy

Today we start with a clean slate. We will "...let patience have her perfect work, that we may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing." (James 1:4) I am starting with a clean slate; I have written several notes to those I needed to forgive and those I needed to ask forgiveness from. I have made up in my mind to not put any stumbling block or obstacle in my brother or sisters way. I don't want any to be hindered because of me (Romans 14:13)

Today's is my new day; my new journey. Week 1 to 6: Love never fails; Joy cometh; Peace rules; Patience waits. I am walking in the Fruit of the Spirit. I am allowing God to water, cultivate, and prune. I want to be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

PATIENCE
