__________

Text:

Be patient, then, brothers, until the Lord's coming. See how the
farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop and how patient
he is for the autumn and spring rains.
You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord's coming is near.
Don't grumble against each other, brothers, or you will be judged.
The Judge is standing at the door!

Brothers, as an example of patience in the face of suffering, take the prophets who
spoke in the name of the Lord. As you know, we consider blessed those who have persevered.
You have heard of Job's perseverance and have seen what the Lord
finally brought about. The Lord is full of compassion and mercy.
