WHY HEM BARAVA IMPORTANT FOR PATIENT

Olsem farmer wea patient for weit and trustim dat hem bae harvestim crops blo hem, iumi patient for weit and trustim dat Jehovah bae fulfillim evri promis blo hem lo taem wea hem markem (Lukim paragraf 7)

7. Olsem James 5:7, 8 storyim, why nao hem barava important for patient? (Lukim tu piksa.)

7 Patient hem important bikos hem sevem laef blo iumi. Olsem olketa faithful servant bifor, iumi tu need for patient and weit for God fulfillim olketa promis blo hem. (Heb. 6:11, 12) Bible comparem situation blo iumi witim wanfala farmer. (Readim James 5:7, 8.) Wanfala farmer waka hard for plantim and watarem olketa crops blo hem, bat hem no savve wat taem bae olketa grow. So hem mas patient and weit, and trustim dat hem bae harvestim crops blo hem. Olsem datfala farmer, iumi tu gohed busy lo olketa spiritual activity nomata iumi “no savve long wanem taem nao Lord bilong [iumi] bae kam.” (Matt. 24:42) Iumi patient for weit and trustim hao lo taem wea Jehovah markem bae hem fulfillim evri promis blo hem. If iumi no patient, maet gogo iumi taed for weit and start for drift from truth. And tu, maet iumi start for aftarem nomoa olketa samting wea mekem iumi hapi distaem. Bat if iumi patient, bae iumi no givap go kasem end and bae iumi sev.​—Mic. 7:7; Matt. 24:13.

Hem helpem iumi for no react kwiktaem tumas and for talem samting wea no kaen taem iumi anda stress. And if iumi patient, bae iumi no kros kwiktaem nomata samwan duim samting wea mekem iumi feel nogud. Instead for pei bak, iumi bae ‘no kros bat evritaem forgivim hem.’​—Readim Colossae 3:12, 13.

9. Hao nao wei for patient helpem iumi taem iumi mekem olketa disison? (Provebs 21:5, SIPB)

9 Patient savve helpem iumi tu for mekem olketa gud disison. Instead for iumi followim feeling nomoa or kwiktaem for mekem disison, iumi bae tek taem for duim research and ting raonem which option nao hem best. (Readim Provebs 21:5, SIPB.) For example, if iumi lukaotem waka maet iumi kwiktaem for acceptim first waka wea iumi faendem nomata iumi savve bae hem affectim worship blo iumi for Jehovah. Bat if iumi patient, bae iumi tek taem for ting raonem olketa samting olsem location blo waka, haomas hour, and hao datfala waka bae affectim famili and spiritual laef blo iumi. Taem iumi patient, bae iumi avoidim olketa rong disison.

10 Prea for God helpem iumi for impruv lo wei for patient. Patient hem wanfala frut blo holy spirit. (Gal. 5:22, 23) So iumi savve prea for holy spirit and askem Jehovah for helpem iumi patient. If iumi feisim wanfala situation wea testim patient fasin blo iumi, ‘gohed ask’ for holy spirit for helpem iumi. (Luke 11:9, 13) And iumi savve askem Jehovah tu for helpem iumi for garem sem tingting olsem hem abaotem datfala situation. Bihaen iumi prea, iumi need for duim best for patient each day. Each taem iumi prea for patient and waka hard for showim datwan, Jehovah bae helpem iumi for garem datfala wei, and bae hem kamap part lo wei blo iumi.

Taem iumi ting raonem story blo olketa, bae iumi lanem hao for showimaot wei for patient. Bifor iumi storyim samfala example hia, bae iumi storyim Jehovah wea showim best example lo wei for patient.

Masbi samfala taem hem no isi for hem patient, especially taem hem deal witim olketa scribe and Pharisee wea hypocrite tumas.

(1 Pet. 2:23) Jesus patient and no komplen taem hem deal witim olketa hard taem. Dastawe Bible talem iumi for ‘ting raonem Jesus wea no givap nomata pipol wea sin tok nogud long hem’!
