Reflect
Patience is a virtue that allows us to trust in God’s perfect timing. St. Francis demonstrated patience in his mission, trusting that God’s plan would unfold in due course. By cultivating patience, we can navigate life’s challenges with grace and trust in God.
Pray
Patient God,
Grant us the virtue of patience.
Help us to trust in your timing and to wait with hope and faith.
May we, like St. Francis, find peace in the assurance
that you are in control of our lives.
Amen.
Act
