let us run with patience..(Heb 12:1).. Patience that can run..to lie down in the time of grief, to be quiet under the stroke of adverse fortune, implies a great strength; but I know of something that implies a greater strength still: It is the power to work under a stroke, to have a great weight at your heart and still run; to have a deep anguish in your spirit and still perform the daily task. It is a Christlike thing..My patience will be perfect when it can WORK in the vineyard. (George Matheson)
