A Prayer for Patience

God, teach me to be patient, teach me to go slow,

Teach me how to wait on You when my way I do not know.

Teach me sweet forbearance when things do not go right

So I remain unruffled when others grow uptight.

Teach me how to quiet my racing, rising heart

So I might hear the answer You are trying to impart.

Teach me to let go, dear God, and pray undisturbed until

My heart is filled with inner peace and I learn to know Your will.
