Lord, I ask for patience with myself as I grow and learn. Sometimes I get frustrated with my progress or feel like I should be further along, but I know that You are at work in me. Please help me to show grace to myself and to trust in Your timing. I know that growth takes time, and I pray that I will embrace the process without rushing or comparing myself to others. Thank You for Your patience with me, and for helping me to be patient with myself as I become the person You’ve created me to be. Amen.
