(Proverbs 19:11) Dear Lord, please help ___ in the area of patience. Show them, Father, the benefit of waiting on You and Your will for their life. Give them the patience to deal with the people around them and to treat them with love and care. By Your Holy Spirit, help develop in them this fruit of the Spirit so others will see their patience and want to be like ___ because they are acting like You. Give ___ the wisdom to understand what is important to oversee and what is better to overlook. Please give ___ a heart like Jesus, who although He was mistreated and misunderstood, did not let anger rule his life, but dealt with people with love and care. In Your name I pray, Amen.
