Be A Bucket Filler Part 4 (Longsuffering)

In Part 4 of our Be a Bucket Filler series, we turn our attention to a fruit of the Spirit that is often overlooked but absolutely essential—longsuffering, also known as patience. Galatians 5:22–25 reminds us that patience is not just a virtue—it’s a sign of the Spirit at work in us. And Ephesians 4:2 encourages us to be “completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.”

Patience fills others’ buckets by showing grace in moments of frustration, endurance in seasons of waiting, and kindness even when others fall short. In a fast-paced, impatient world, the Spirit calls us to be different—people who slow down, forgive quickly, and love deeply.

Join us as we explore how longsuffering reflects the heart of God and how developing this fruit can help us pour peace and stability into the lives of those around us.
