Week 6: Patience
Don’t bite off more than you can chew.
Proverbs 23
Don’t put so much in your mouth at one time. It makes eating harder than it’s supposed to be and it doesn’t look very attractive. The same goes for impatience. It makes things harder rather than easier and it never looks good.
A more excellent way is to take appropriate bites. Don’t go for the chipmunk cheek look. You can always take another bite. God’s more excellent way is patient. Love is patient. Literally, it is God’s macro theme, his big picture.
That’s why we don’t bite off more than we can chew. We are trying to show off God’s picture not our big mouth. Where do you tend to show yourself instead of God’s more excellent way? How will that change?
