Homemaker's Journal: Long-Suffering


The hardest part of showing long-suffering is …………. actually having it
The most rewarding part of showing long-suffering is ……….. the knowledge that I was for a moment able to be a positive representative of Christ
The one kind situation that I have the most trouble showing long-suffering in is ……… when people are being what I consider to be stupid/foolish - at work when I have already explained something fully yet the person still gets upset when given what they asked for or ask about what I just told them
I see how kindness goes hand in hand with long-suffering because ………. I generally show kindness to the person/people that are requiring long-suffering from me
I want others to show long-suffering to me when ……… I'm confused/lost in regards to how something is done, particularly when there is no way for me to easily find out on my own
God shows long-suffering to me in these ways ……….. every element of my life - no matter what I do and how good I may think it is at first, in comparison to Him it is nothing.  Yet He loves me.
Ephesians 4:1-4 says ….. 
I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call—


This week I will begin to ask God to ……….. soften my heart so that I will have love for the person which will help me have long-suffering
