We find patience by surrendering to our feelings. Patience cannot be forced. It is a gift, one that closely follows acceptance and gratitude. When we work through our feelings to fully accept who we are and what we have, we will be ready to be and have more.
Of acceptance, gratitude and patience, patience is the one I struggle with most, even today. I never was a good "waiter" perhaps that's why I was so driven by my codependency, because of an urgency to resolve everything NOW.

Today when I begin to feel impatient, I need to take a break, gather some peace in my heart and remember that life unfolds exactly as it is supposed to and that God's time may not be my time, but He is never late.
