       So what about patience? Patience is a character trait of which, unfortunately, isn’t much valued anymore in our modern times. It seems there are a few individuals still left who like patience and actually practice it, but it would seem that there is more on the non-practicing side of this, preferring to obtain what they want immediately, to obtain it right now. It is often referred to as an attitude of entitlement, and even the younger generations are thought of to have more of an entitled mindset. Yet, Paul tells us we are to “Put on… patience” (ESV). Thus, it’s fair to say that patience wont come naturally for anybody. It was something the speaker had to learn over time, even over the Christian journey. When becoming a Christian, it wasn’t that patience automatically came into play. Maybe in small ways, but with the bigger things in life, patience had to be learned over time.
