Patience is one of those attributes that you cannot learn by reading about it. It's a quality that can only be acquired by persistent, enduring, practice. And for me, it's a drill I go over and over again!

The original Webster's dictionary offers this definition of patience: "the suffering of afflictions, pain, toil, calamity, provocation or other evil, with a calm, unruffled temper; endurance without murmuring or fretfulness, from a kind of heroic pride, or from a Christian submission to the divine will."

Reading this definition, two things really struck me. First, "endurance without murmuring."

I get so frustrated sitting in a traffic jam, counting the wasted minutes when I could have been doing something useful! Yet, what an opportunity for me to choose to quench the inner fumes---and use the delay to work on my patience!

The second thing that really hit me was, "a Christian submission to the divine will." How many times are we placed in a difficult position, or forced to deal with an "impossible" situation? Or perhaps, an "impossible" person?

These circumstances are always opportunities to grow in patience---or to learn to submit to God's providential will, and often, to minister in some special or unique way...

We have made some significant changes in our sound quality. All four streams went through a major enhancement and the worship music sounds better than ever! Please, check out the new sound on any of our four streams: Praise & Worship, Contemporary, Instrumental and Spanish. We think you'll be pleased. And we welcome your feedback!

Some emails we have received from our listeners around the world….

Location: Mangilao, Guam
Message: I just wanted to thank you for answering the call of God to go to the world. I am in the military and I'm stationed in Guam. Guam is a little island close to Japan. Being as small as it is there is not really a dedicated radio station to Christian music here. I wanted you to know that you have been a blessing to me in a place where I usually feel surrounded by nothing but the world.

Location: Kitwe-Zambia
Message: Ever since I discovered All Worship, my life never been the same. You teach me the Word in a whole new way. It makes me think that after all, the Word can be lived in a very practical way. I know I that I face a lot of challenges in my life, especially as a young man. (Am turning 30 this October). Thanks for time and effort, I really hope All Worship will be around till the New Jerusalem.

Message: Hi, I just wanted to let you know that we are very thankful for allworship. My wife and I are in the delivery room as I type waiting on the arrival of our 3rd child and are utilizing the wireless connection at Brookwood Hospital to worship Jesus as we wait. May the Lord bless and keep you as you provide a wonderful service.

We are so blessed to be able to broadcast Christian worship music around the world. We thank you for allowing us to do this for nearly 14 years! Everyone connected with AllWorship is very humbled to be part of this ministry. We realize this accomplishment has nothing to do with us. It has everything to do with God and His awesome power. We can see God’s hands guiding this ministry at every decision point, even before AllWorship began. Here is the story of how AllWorship came to be in 2004.
