The fruit of the Spirit is…peace, patience… (Galatians 5:22, CEB)
Never forget to promote peace,
Because a peaceful spirit practices patience.
(“Never Forget” Line 2)
If possible…live at peace with all people. (Romans 12:18)
Give me a heart that desires peace, a mind that plans for peace, a soul that rests in your peace, and the strength to pursue peace always, as far as it depends on me.
Hotheads stir up conflict, but patient people calm down strife. (Proverbs 15:18)
Let the peace you have planted in my heart bear the fruit of patience. Help me be slow to speak so that the other's voice might be heard. Help me be quick to listen so that the other's voice might be understood. And help me be slow to grow angry so that peace and reconciliation might be possible.
