Being Patient
Being Patient
Do you struggle to be patient sometimes? Saint Faustina wrote:
"True works of God always meet opposition and are marked by suffering. If God wants to accomplish something, sooner or later He will do so in spite of the difficulties. Your part, in the meantime, is to arm yourself with great patience" (270).
