I wish for Patience...
I have never been a fan of or even a good subscriber to Patience (though i should be)...Patience is a virtue that i don't have. I'm trying though, but a quick reminder of this came just yesterday. I wanted something and when i couldn't get it when i wanted it, i ranted and raved and got emotional over something that was totally out of my control. I soon realized (not all by myself but with the help of a very dear friend) that i can't control some situations, can't always get what i want when i want it, no matter how small or insignificant i felt the the gesture was. I am living proof that my worst offense on any giving day is having the patience to allow some things to just happen. No, i want to make it happen, slap on my Superwoman Tee and just go for it. I have learned differently and have been slapped with reality a many of times when it comes to my very on patience.
Patience is a virtue, I'm sure...so i wish for all of you some patience and couple that with some understanding so that we may all know, learn and benefit from it.

When I was younger I was very impatient. Which is a bad way to be.
But now as I get older I've become very patient. So much so that sometimes it feels more like apathy.
I just stop caring if I get something or if something is going to happen.
So for me I need to find the sweet spot between being patient and not being apathetic.
That would be my wish.
Great post, Miz.
Good morning and Happy Thursday. Just wanted to stop by and wish you a very Merry Christmas in the name of our Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus.
May all the things you wish for and pray for come by the hand of the Almighty Father.
He loves and cares about you, your heart's desire and all the little details of your life.
He is near to all who call on Him in truth.
Looking forward to another year and sharing, growing, preaching and teaching with you and our blog family.
With love, peace and blessings,
Free Spirit Butterfly
When you've done your part... planted the seed.. let go and let God do his part.
It is indeed a virtue, & the older I become, the more I have understood that expression. Maybe impatience is a selfish possession of our youth & as we age, those of us who evolve, develop a deeper, stronger sense of patience which derives from our faith/experience that things will work out the way they are supposed to... and this is furthered strengthened by our faith in The Creator.

I keep hearing how it's a virtue.....and certainly not one of mine unfortunately.
