But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary, and they shall walk and not faint. – Isaiah 40:31 Patience is listed as one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit.

And no one, who planted maize will wait for the harvest time to conclude that it was maize but not sorghum that was planted. We are not Christians by the good works or acts we do, but we are […]
