       People can try to pretend like they don’t sin, but God is watching and keeping count. He knows everything that everyone does, whether they know him or not. Because he is holy and cannot have anything unholy around him in his new universe, he’s going to deal, at that time, with anything that offends. But James has instructed believers in Jesus to “Be patient.” Why patience? Being patient means we must be excited and looking forward for something to happen. Remember, patience is one of the ultimate character traits we are striving for in our lives. According to James, what are we looking forward to? Well, I’ll go ahead and answer this question from my own perspective. I am looking forward, first, to being physically with Jesus, having our relationship come into complete manifestation, seeing him in person, one on one. Second, I am looking forward to getting rid of my sin-nature, no longer having to watch myself lest I sin, or trying to ward off sinful habits.
