10 Verses For The Impatient Person
Allie Daniel

We all feel impatient sometimes, or at least I know I do. Best thing to do when you feel impatient? Pray. Here are 10 verses for when you're feeling that your patience is wearing thin. Enjoy!


1. Exodus 14:14 "The Lord himself will fight for you; you have only to keep still.

2. Romans 8:24-25 "For in hope we were saved. Now hope that sees for itself is not hope. For who hopes for what one sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait with endurance.

3. Proverbs 15:29-30 "The patient man shows much good sense, but the quick-tempered man displays folly at its height."

4 . Galatians 6:9 "Let us not grow tired of doing good, for in due time we shall reap our harvest, if we do not give up."

5. Psalm 37:7 "Be still before the Lord; wait for God. Do not be provoked by the prosperous nor by the malicious schemers."

6. Psalm 27:14 "Wait for the Lord, take courage; be stouthearted, wait for the Lord!"

7. James 5:7-9 "Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient with it until it receives the early and late rains. You too must be patient. Make your hearts firm, because the coming of the Lord is at hand."

8. 2 Peter 3:8 "But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years and a thousand years like one day."

9. Romans 12:12 "Rejoice in hope, endure in affliction, persevere in prayer."

10. John 16:22 "So you also are now in anguish. But I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you."

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
