This book is intended to lead you into an examination of patience, and at times its opposing forces, so that you can gain a sharper vision of your busy days and your racing activities. Hopefully, God will allow you to find balance and wholeness as you meditate through the contents. It’s written from a Christian vantage point, enriched by the resources to be mined from the Bible, along with the church’s theological traditions. The book plumbs the deep experiences of human beings as they struggle with the tug-of-war between impatience and patience. You’ll be led to value the tense gestures of God’s Spirit as he beckons you to walk back and forth on the tightrope of creativity that patience and impatience produce in the sensitive soul of Jesus’ disciple.
Patience: Harvesting the Spirit’s Fruit is part of a series of books that explore the teaching of the apostle Paul in Galatians 5:22-23, and it’s dedicated to those who don’t want to be in a hurry, who wish not to create dissatisfaction and distress around them. They’re the sort of people who want to see the flow of life as one watches a stream rippling over stones and around gentle curves rather than barreling over uncontrollable rapids and falls. If you’re still reading, this book is dedicated to you. Enjoy it slowly. Patience will come.
