Just me trying to be honest with God.

“Patience is the companion of wisdom.” St. Augustine

“...and bear fruit with patience.” Lk.8 ESV

I often find myself pitching little temper tantrums when things don't go my way. I am one of those people that spill my coffee, miss the garbage can, tear a bag of groceries when I pick it up, or put my tee-shirt on backward. I think the word I am looking for is ”Klutz.” My response? Well usually I first get mad. Then get sad that I am mad. Then I apologize and ask God for patience. What does God do but gives me another opportunity to practice patience. I pick up the spilled groceries put them in another bag and it tears also. 9/1/11 Conversations Within ts (Jacksonville, FL)
