We all have situations in which we find it difficult to be patient. In this meditation we use texts of Scripture and St Josemaria Escriva’s book The Way to consider:

• How patience is part of the virtue of fortitude
• How there are degrees of patience
• How difficulties in life can help sanctify us
• How love for God is essential to grow in this virtue
• How we can grow in patience if we consider how patient God is with us
