Patience demands that we be willing to wait for certain things. It cannot rob Diligence, which requires continued striving in the face of opposition.
Being Diligent, between Faithful and Honest, requires the consistency of faithfulness, and the honest recognition that some things are not solved simply or easily; that the heart of the issue must be faced again, and again, and again.
Patience is between Humility and Hopeful. Hopefulness anticipates good things. Similarly, Patience is willing to wait for good things. And Patience is willing to do so humbly, quietly, without having to be agreed with or understood.
