* Luis Alberto Alves
The apostle Tiago, chapter 5, verses 7-8, advises us to be patient as the coming of Jesus Christ. It suggests even that we should have the same behavior of farmers waiting for the fruits that will be born after the release of the seeds on earth. But how many Christians today can fit this profile suggested by one of Christ's disciples?
Today, most evangelical lost patience. Just think this rotten world. They chase the crumbs thrown by Satan of his dirty table. Lose faith quickly. They aim to achievements, but without a sacrifice of sweat drop. Everything needs to fall anyway in your hands. No matter the means, only the ends.
Patience is something harmful to duty selfish. Many suspect until the coming of Jesus Christ walking on the clouds. They prefer the speed of deception. They pay no price prayer. The deal is to get the achievement. For women, some lost the shame of prostitution in search of a better position in the company.
Therefore, my brothers have something serious consciousness: if you lose patience as the return of Jesus Christ. I regret to inform you that your life is in the hands of the wicked. He will deceive you to throw it in place only where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth. In there will be hard for you to cry out to the Lord. The time to do this with patience is here on earth.
