PATIENCE

Craig Harrison - Coffee With Jesus

As I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus, I was thinking about the word PATIENCE.  Philippians 4:6 says, “Do not be anxious about anything but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”

Some days I find myself impatient with many things.  I might be impatient with my children or my grandchildren, or with people who come to see me, or with the dog, or with my calendar; the list goes on and on.  I’m trying to practice the art of pausing before I act or respond.  During this pause, I take a breath, and try to be conscious of what is actually going on.

So, today I am going to practice the art of being PATIENT, not only with others, but also with myself.  I am going to try to be mindful of the pause that I need to stay present in the moment so I can respond with love and care.  Today, let’s practice the art of being PATIENT and celebrate our Lord, who is very PATIENT with us. 

Have a wonderful day!
