Sunday morning's message -- Patience
Afternoon conversation -- Patience
Challenge Monday morning -- Patience
Hmm... Is someone trying to tell me something?
Hmm #2... but I prayed, I read, I counseled, I clicked, I even paused... once or twice. I patienced.
And after microwaving coffee, Googling a how-to YouTube, ordering a deliver-it-tomorrow, I had time to be patient. But my half hours of patience did not produce! Good grief.
Wait. Could it be that patiencing is processing? Over time. Lots of time. That God's lesson, message, conversation, and challenge to me is to know, down deep, that He will have His perfect way through the process. He won't be rushed. Won't be navigated, manipulated, operated. He will not withhold the process for the product.
Here are my patiencing processes: adjusting to alone-life, feeling home at home, refusing insignificance, missing my sweet estranged girl, aching for more God-Kingdom in my kingdom. Products. Products requiring a process of reflecting, evaluating, understanding, expanding, and embracing myself and all my others. A process probably longer than half hours.
I know He will. He will process me, product me and patience me.
Know it down deep, Kath.
