These past few months have been a big trial of my patience. I have never had so much happen to me at one time. Fracturing my tibial plateau was just about the absolute breaking point of my patience and then I had to blow out my knee 8 weeks after that. I’m trying to look at this in a positive way. Paul the apostle counseled us “Let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith” Heb. 12:1-2 Two guidelines that he has given us as we run the race are first run with patience and second look unto Christ. Running with patience suggests rhythm, pacing yourself and being able to endure. And looking unto Christ helps us know we are not alone. We will have times when we feel like quitting the race because we can’t see the end in sight but you just need to learn to enjoy the ride. Some blessing come soon, some come late but for those who embrace the trial the blessings will come. I’m just trying to take one step at a time and hopefully things will start looking up!
P.S. Sorry its been forever since I've updated. I'll be better at it from now on :)
