A Perfect Work

Patience is a virtue which will
Always start quite small,
But as it's practiced over time
Will "stand", whate'er befall.

It often is the factor
Which ensures that we will "win",
For it spurs us on in "battle"
From the time that we begin.

As we learn to rest and wait
And diligence pursue,
We will learn about God's grace
And have a whole new view.

"But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing."
James 1:4 KJV
