Prayer for Patience: Calm My Heart

Lord, the new year often arrives with a rush, demanding results before

the season has even begun. We feel the pressure to move fast,

to bloom instantly, and to conquer every new goal today. But growth is

quiet. It is slow. It cannot be forced by our frantic human pace.

Help me to wait well. Like a tea bag steeping, let my heart

find its strength. Let me find strength in the stillness, resisting the urge

to rush toward the finish line prematurely. Transform my impatience into a deep,

steady trust in Your perfect and sovereign timing for my life. Romans eight,
