Bible Verses About Patience
Scripture for the waiting seasons — verses on patience, endurance, and trusting God's timing.
Waiting is hard, holy work. The Bible treats patience not as passive resignation but as active trust — a settled confidence that God's timing is good, even when it is slow.
Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
The harvest comes in due season — keep going.
Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.
The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
God is not slow; he is thorough. What feels like delay is often his patience at work in us — and the waiting itself is rarely wasted.
