Where do I begin to describe? When we are not listening, it's amazing what God will do to teach us things to make us hear. I have always been inpatient. With everything. It's still hard to have patience...but I understand more. I had to learn patience when I came down with pneumonia the saturday before Thanksgiving. I was stuck in a hospital bed on oxygen during Thanksgiving! The hospital was nice enough to bring me a small Thanksgiving meal. And it was good . I was only allowed to leave my room once the 6 days I was in the perinatal wing. For I was 30 weeks pregnant. I am now 33. It was hard being stuck in a bed all day everyday. It really taught me 1: Stop trying to be strong for others! and 2: be patient. I cried a lot because I just needed to leave that room and they wouldn't let me leave. When I sat and thought "why me?" I would stop and say to myself.."Hey now. You could be a lot worse. You need to remember that. Asthma and pregnant doesn't help, but hey it could be a lot worse." Patience can help a person not only with relationships, but also with your health. It's too stressful expecting too much. Stress is a waste of time. Something I need to try to keep in mind. Why worry or get upset? Put it in God's hands. Take it to him. I just wonder something...How can I listen to God better? I feel like I never listen good enough.

    God is so good! He has had His hands full with me and patience! It truly is one area I am constantly working on! What a great reminder for us, when we are "put down" when we want to keep going. God is so amazing to us!

    Thanks for commenting about forgiveness on my blog. I just wanted to tell you I am praying for you. the situation with your father must be very hard. I am sorry about your loss of that relationship. God is the father to the fatherless and the Forgiver for those who just can't forgive in their own strength.

    Wow I am soo sorry that you have been so sick. Again it has to be so tough on you being pregnant and so ill too. I hope you are well by now.

    Hearing God speak is the age old discussion. the world is so full of distraction we get bogged down and hearing Him can be so hard sometimes. But believe me He is always speaking to His daughters. We have His Spirit in us and when we let go of life and let Him live it in and through us we hear Him more clearly. Easier said than done huh? Praying for you about this too.
