He that can have Patience


He that can have Patience, can have what he will- Benjamin Franklin


Every one that knows me will describe me as a little bit impatient. Waiting is one of the things I struggle with. I will say it is because I am a little hyper (like Elmo) and always ready to go. I am also a person that needs to know EVERYTHING

How bad is it?

Hmm this is a little weird, but I need to know every detail of a movie before I watch it. I am not talking about the short summary you will find online. This girl (Me)  has found a website that describes every detail and event that occurs in whatever movie I look up. Even the new releases (I often wonder how do they complete this so quickly)  Yes I am that girl that will ask a million annoying questions about a show or movie. If you are wonder how does this not ruin the movie, my answer is a lot of times the visuals surprise me and the movie is just as exciting. I also record most of my TV shows because I don't like waiting for commercials. If it happens to be a boring part of the show or TV movie I fast forward. 
I will call in to Panera (awesome food) to place an order to go, sometimes even if I am eating there.
I am probably the only girl that hates to shop because I  don't like spending hours looking for clothes and trying them on. Most time I get the same shirt in multiple colors and I'm on my way.Yes I know, I have been told this is terrible.

The world has become a place of convenience, fast pace and short conversations. Most of the time I am not required to wait too long for what I want. However, waiting on God is a whole different story. I feel like I have been enrolled into Patience/Waiting 101

“You must wait on me for your directions” this is what God says to me constantly. I am always asking when? What? Where? How? And my favorite… Why? Sometimes he answers and sometimes I feel ignored.

In the next few posts I will talk about some of the questions I am waiting to be answered and all the things that come with waiting.
