Patience talks about herself and says,

"I am the daughter of Wisdom and Faith.
I exist from the beginning but still young in age.
Time has no control on me because I believe in what is beyond time.
I am the space that God needs to work in everyone's life.
Few wanted to follow me because my road is narrow.
I know it is narrow, but safe at the same time.
If you do not believe me, ask Job and Joseph!
Few write about me and fewer are those who had a real experience with me.
If you think you know me, then you really don't!
If you want to search for me, I will tell where I can be!
I am hidden in all virtues. I am the manifestation of submission to God's Will.
The Lord said that through me, you can possess your soul."
