Waiting to Be Patient...

Have you ever wanted something so bad that you hurt, ache, go insane... waiting, waiting, waiting? What happens when I'm finished waiting and get everything I want? Here is my biggest fear: That I will be so hurt or angry, or both for the waiting...

that I won't want what I'm waiting for....


(It should be noted here, that I've stopped myself from having a lil' temper tantrum. On the one hand, I was acting like a child. On the other... everyone acts childish when they are in my situation.)

Oh.... so....

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful worldas it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next. Amen.
