Fellow Christians; do you know any verses on patience that I can meditate and pray about?

I'm going through a really weird time right now (don't want to discuss it). It's not a life-or-limb thing but it's important and I'd like to know some verses on patience that I can reflect upon while praying or reading my Bible.

Thanks!

All of these answers - yet all have missed the essential point.
Please look at Matthew Chapter 6 Verses 25 to 34 about worry.
Lack of patience is due to worrying.
Read this, and all will be OK.

Luke 21:19 By your patience possess your souls.

By your patience possess your souls: The word for patience here is the great Greek word hupomone. It speaks of a strong endurance, not a passive waiting. Our souls will be kept by the strong endurance that the Lord works into us. (David Guzik)

The first one that comes to mind is one that Jesus said: "Forgive then=m, Father; they know not what they do. The Lord's Prayer is another. From "A Course in Miracles," lesson 162, we are told to repeat, "I am as God created me," meaning there is nothing to forgive, bringing patience, as we realize that all is love. Patience would be an emotion and is not of God. There is no time; so patience is not needed. Forgiveness would take away the need for ptience.
參考: "A Course in Miracles" plus my own spiritual experience.

Try this:

"Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.

And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;

And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;

And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity." -- 2 Peter 1:4-7

Or, simply this:

"The greatest patience is humility." --a Buddhist saying.

Peace be with you.

Luke 8: 14-16
Colossians 1: 10-12
Colossians 3: 11-13
Galatians 5: 21-23
Romans 8: 24-26

I found those in the Amplified Bible and the New International Version of the Holy Bible. If you don't see the word patient or patience in your translation I apologize.

Psalm 46:10

Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.

The end of a matter is better than its beginning, and patience is better than pride.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.

Colossians 1:10-12

And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light.

Just a few that help me...

Lord I pray for my friend that you will guide and cover, and see through the promises that were spoken. I thank you for your mercy that it never fails. I pray you cover my friend with wisdom and strength to endure the patience that you bring us when we ask for it. In the Name of Jesus, AMEN.

Peace out sista!
