LEARNING TO BE PATIENT AS A CHRISTIAN

Patience is more than a virtue; it’s a testament to our faith and trust in God’s plan, said Apostle Isaac Owusu Amponsah as he delivered a profound sermon on the importance of cultivating patience in our lives.

Drawing from the scripture, particularly James 5:7-8, he urged the congregation to “be patient… until the Lord’s coming.” This passage emphasizes the farmer’s patience as he waits for the land to yield its valuable crop, reminding us that our own lives often require a similar steadfastness.

Apostle Isaac Owusu Amponsah reflected on moments where waiting, although challenging, ultimately brought unexpected blessings and deeper understanding. These stories illustrated that impatience often stems from a lack of trust in God’s timing and a desire to control our circumstances. By surrendering this need for control and embracing patience, we open ourselves to the fullness of God’s plan for us.

He highlighted that patience is not passive. It’s an active, intentional practice of faith. In a world obsessed with instant gratification, learning to be patient is counter cultural. Yet, it’s in these moments of waiting that we often experience the most growth.

He encouraged the congregation to use periods of waiting as opportunities for reflection, prayer, and spiritual development.

He also reminded us that patience with others is a reflection of God’s patience with us. By showing patience in our relationships, we mirror the grace and love that God continually extends to us. Apostle Isaac’s message was a powerful reminder that patience is a journey of trust and faith. It’s about finding peace in the process and believing that God’s timing is perfect, even when it doesn’t align with our own.

As we move forward, let us embrace patience as a spiritual discipline, trusting that in waiting, we are being prepared for the blessings God has in store for us. Through patience, we grow closer to God, deepen our faith, and find true peace in His divine timing.
