"The two most powerful warriors are patience and time."-Leo Tolstoy

"Pampered bodies grow sluggish through sloth; not work but movement and their own weight exhausts them. Prosperity unbruised cannot endure a single blow, but a man who has been at a constant feud with misfortunes acquires skin calloused by suffering; he yields to no evil and even if he stumbles carries the fight on upon his knee." -Seneca 

 

STOP Complaining

James 5:9

 

“The truly patient man neither complains of his hard lot nor desires to be pitied by others. He speaks of his sufferings in a natural, true, and sincere way, without murmuring, complaining, or exaggerating them.” -St. Francis de Sales

 

Psalm 142:2

Psalm 88:15-18

 

STAY the course

James 5:10-11
