Delayed gratification
Not prejudiced
Big picture
Solution oriented
I would also add merciful and forgiving to god's will and angry and punitive to my will. God's will is to be very slow to anger and punishment, whereas my will is to be hot tempered. God's will is to slow things down because he knows how quick things can get out of control. My will is break the speed limit, run stop signs and red lights. My will is foolish and God's will is wise.
