Patient

Last week the topic was “Ask“ God for the desires of your heart but we have to temper those requests sometimes with patience. Many times, we ask God for something but get impatient if our request is not granted or fulfilled immediately. I heard a preacher say that a pray request delayed is not a denial.

Wait on the Lord….and he will provide
