Patience


Take a deep breath.  No matter what you're struggling with, you can get through it if you're willing to be patient.  I like what Aristotle said about patience..."Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet."

Jesus spent 40 days in the desert.  No TV.  No internet.  No FaceBook.  No interactions with friends and family.  40 days.  He was working on patience.  I'm sure those days were bitter.  His period of preparation gave all of us the Resurrection.  The door is open.  We simply need to be patient while we move forward on our own private journeys.  Some of us are in the desert.  Others, like me, are covered in snow and we can't wait for this season to finally be over.  Patience.  That is what we need.  Have a great day.
