Love is patient...

Love waits... for God's timing
God's timing is Him moving through us
This requires a relinquishing of control on our part
This takes time
Thus, love is patient

Lord You are patient
You wait for us... without ceasing

"Love is patient", the first characteristic mentioned
Unexpected yet fitting
By waiting, we are letting God work
Waiting is not stagnant
Waiting is serving
