Sunday Morning Sunshine: Patience, Peace and Determination

 Patience

When I want things done NOW or yesterday...

God's helped me to learn that HIS timing is always right.

Peace

God has taught me to appreciate and take advantage of a

slower pace; to use the beautiful, simple things

in my life to gain peace.

Determination

When the devil says I can't

When circumstances look impossible

When my confidence in my ability wans

then God stirs a big courage into my life. 

Have faith.

He knows what we need.

Serious Wednesdays: Let Me Count the Ways

Let Me Count the Ways I Love My Husband

He's Intelligent and Intuitive

He brings me flowers.

He's a fine cook!

He was a great Dad to his boys,

and is a wonderful grandfather

He buys the nicest cards!

He's a prayer warrior and a wonderful minister

He loves having fun.

I love laughing with him.

He's the strongest man I know.

He's my anchor, my friend, my lover and confidant.

I love him so much.

Happy birthday, Handsome!

In Our Own Hands

How many times do I do this very thing?

Can't wait.
Know it better myself.
Can't see beyond my own nose.

Ouch.

What failings.
Why can't we humans learn?

It's so easy to say, if it's going to get done, I've got to do it myself. But what about patience? What about waiting for answer? For the chore to get done by a younger generation? What about that person who has to think his way through it before acting.

Patience: the virtue of waiting, the willingness to put up with waiting, pain, trouble, etc. Calm endurance of anything that annoys, troubles, or hurts.

Have you seen those who always have to be doing something. (Like me?) Hard to sit still? Hard to be still for long?

Patience. A virtue, I'm afraid many of us lack.

Even me.
