Luke 21:19

 
"'In your patience possess your souls.'"
Luke 21:19 (NKJ)
 
    Patience. Now that's a desirable virtue. The ability to be able to wait and/or to endure something for a very long time without getting annoyed or anxious . . .
    It seems to involve having complete peace. Understanding that things are going the way they should be and that everything will be all right in the end. Not worrying because of a knowledge that there's no need to be worried, and that getting upset or irritated is pointless.
    Come to think of it . . . isn't that just like the peace that the Lord gives us as we trust in Him? Could patience be directly linked to faith?
    What do you think? :)
