Patience is The Pathway to Opportunity

Patience is the path to opportunities. We gain patience through prayer and meditation. Within that vein, we never consider ourselves having failed. We see something greater ahead through the hope within us - that if we continue pushing forward and never looking back to consider, what if? why? and listening to negative advice, but trusting in God, who can make all things happen for our good, VICTORY! is ours.
Scripture: 
For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
Hebrews 10:36 



Permanence, perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragement, and impossibilities: It is this,  that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak.
 ~ Thomas Carlyle                         


Because of the lack of patience, many people don't complete their goals. If success is not achieved within a short period of time they will give up, and start on another goal. To train for a career or a job, one has to have the patience to receive the skills that are required to do the requirements correctly. That could take several months or years to require the proper training needed to avoid mistakes that could be costly or cause injuries or death.

Patience is necessary in having a successful relationship. Meeting an individual today and trusting them to be the soul-mate, one desires, is not logical. Some people become impatient while waiting to meet someone who they can have a trustworthy relationship with, and therefore, they aren't willing to allow both - them and the person they have met, enough time to get to know each other. The quick relationships, can be dangerous.  It takes more than one day to get to really know if you can trust an individual to have any kind of relationship with, be it friendship, or romance. The mind of an individual is very difficult to understand, because people can be great pretenders. They can disguise themselves to be everything that you want them to be, and yet they are the opposite of everything you thought they were.
