“Be patient, therefore, brothers and sisters,
until the coming of the Lord.
The farmer waits for the precious crop from the earth,
being patient with it until it receives the early and the late rains.
You also must be patient.
Strengthen your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is near.”
– James 5:7-8 (NRSVue)
