Patience.

I really appreciate you who can work with kids all day. I just babysat a 5 year old all day for 8 hours. I had fun with him, but wow young kids really do need attention ALL OF THE TIME! Ha. I know someday I will have children, but I hope it'll be different as a mom! I think it will :)

God has been teaching me patience for as long as I can remember. I had a father-like figure tell me once that I will always be working on patience. Which is so true, because I know I can't just become patient over night. Every day, God gives me opportunities to be patient, sometimes I take them and sometimes I don't.

Colossians 3:12: "Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, humility, gentleness, and patience."

I am learning to walk about "wearing patience." So next time you are in a hurry and the car in front of you is slow, remember to be patient and don't worry so much about time. Another way God challenges us in patience is our future. Don't be anxious about where God is taking you in the future, just have faith that it is for your good. :)
