It is easy to tolerate someone or any situation, but its hard when it always get in your face.
But the Bible says truly shows us the way on how to be patient and less angered.
Psalm 37:7-9
Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act. Don’t worry about evil people who prosper or fret about their wicked schemes. Stop being angry! Turn from your rage! Do not lose your temper - it only leads to harm. For the wicked will be destroyed, but those who trust in the Lord will possess the land.When everything is going our way, patience is easy to demonstrate. The true test of patience comes when our rights are violated -
- when another car cuts us off in traffic,
- when we are treated unfairly,
- when our someone keep annoys you day by day,
- when things don't always goes according to what you want or what you planned.
The Bible, however, praises patience as a fruit of the Spirit which should be produced for all followers of Christ. Patience reveals our faith in God’s timing, omnipotence, and love. Patience is persevering towards a goal, enduring trials, or expectantly waiting for a promise to be fulfilled.
Galatians 6:9
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.- Patience does not develop overnight. God’s power and goodness are crucial to the development of patience. In the end of the day, you'll get your reward.
Proverbs 15:18
A hot-tempered man stirs up dissension, but a patient man calms a quarrel.- Impatience only bring disaster and anger to us. Be chill and let the Lord guide us to overcome it.
Patience is waiting. Not passively waiting. That is laziness. But to keep going when the going is hard and slow - that is patience. Patience serves as a protection against wrongs as clothes do against cold. For if you put more clothes as the cold increases, it will have no power to hurt you. So in like manner you must grow in patience when you meet with great wrongs, and they will then be powerless to vex your mind.
