St. Titus One Power Word December, 2016
"Patience"
Here we are in the final month of the year wondering if we made the best of the year.
Many times while we're in the moment, we move so fast that the thought never even
comes to mind because of our hurried schedules. But when there is nothing we can do about it, we seem to want to reflect about it.
"Patience"
We often make a decision while hurrying that comes back to bite us later on. Then we may wonder why couldn't we just slow down and properly evaluate the situation in
order to get the best results?
"Patience"
The Bible says that there is a way that seems right to a man but that it leads to
destruction. That's clearly not what you had in mind when you made your decision.
"Patience"
Consider the scripture in Ecclesiastics that says, "For everything there is a time and a
season". Well that could very well be applied to your problematic lifestyle of rushing.
On ABC 7 there's a show called the "View”. At the end of the program Whoopi always
closes with the same line, "Take a little time to enjoy the view".
"Patience”
When we learn to relax and trust while depending on our God, he will allow us to be
abundantly blessed beyond measure without stress and anxiety. We should stop acting like we have all the answers, God said that he knows the plan that he has for us, to
prosper and not fail. So why not just use "Patience" and allow our creator to make
the best use of our lives. When you want to know more, come to Church.
