Today is supposed to be what people say a "tough day" but im just glad I woke up in the right side of the bed and i am coping well despite the demands of work. I thank God for this day that he has prepared me emotionally and spiritually by revealing his word in deutoronomy chapter 20. It talks about going to war, its an assurance that though I may go in war alone I will be assured that he will fight for me and He will be at my side what ever it takes. In fairness to life, I see each and every opportunity and happenings as venue for character building and as well as improving my patience. I am just looking forward to clear my heart from whatever it is that i have kept there, I release the hate, and all the negativ feelings for I know it would only damage me emotionally and spiritually.

Amen Zelmarq, Every trial we go through is another opportunity to grow. Patience is a weakness for me too, but I learned to not pray for patience because then the trials really start coming. I just wait until the L-rd feels I am ready..:)

Yes, each event in our life serves as a purpose and it happens to improve our character.

Patience is very important in our everyday life. Along with tolerance we can learn that we are all important and have to learn this. God has given us the chance, we have the choice.

Yes, you were right at that point. Be forgivable to human kind is the sharpest weapon to kill back our negative traits. Turn to a new leaf will freshen up our mind. But for our soul, 'be apologetic' is the "Ne-Plus-Ultra".
