We find that we are generally impatient. This is perhaps the greatest obstacle in becoming successful , in becoming happy. If you are reading this and are a young person it is one of the most important lessons of your life patience.
You will find one characteristic in most successful people is patience.
Wait patiently upon the Lord. This is taught in the holy bible , the Quran , the Torah or any book of wisdom. When a person places a stock trade , when they get married , when you have a child, anything thing you do should be done with patience.
We are told in the bible the greatest men of wisdom and wealth King Solomon and King David were patient.
Events that happen in our appointed time bring happiness. We think perhaps a sense of desire is filled by having a sex partner before our appointed time and end up in hot soup. Perhaps we should wait for the appointed time. You may want to begin a business and it may seem like a good one. Then the business fails and you are questioning God. Did you wait for the right time to start the business , in the business world demand is important. Everything is not just about supply and therefore timing is important.
When you pray ask Our Father thy will be done. You will find that patience is as important as knowledge. It is easy in a world of fast food and hurry up society to become impatient. Believe me I have learned the hard way and am still learning the art of patience. Most grief is caused by being impatient. Had we waited to finish our education before getting married or having children. Had we just stayed at one job a little longer instead of looking for greener grass. Had we taught our children patience instead of spoiling them. All these things and more can make the difference in future happiness.
We all have an appointed time for each major activity in life. Ask for patience not just substance.
