Post #42 - I ALMOST Lost It

I almost lost my patience this morning. 

Thoughts and feelings flooded me as I woke up this morning that made me start questioning things.

Actions, sincerity, motives... why we do what we do. And why we DON'T do what we should. 

I almost lost my countenance this morning thinking about empty words and broken promises. About how people tend to only consider themselves and not the hearts and feelings of others. 

Then, I remembered who I am. 

I remembered that I am a child of God. I am disciplined and controlled. 

I remembered that God is working out my problems and I just have to let Him work... while I wait and trust. 

It's ALREADY done and I'm going to get EXACTLY and EVERYTHING God has promised me! And it's going to be bigger and better than anything I could ever ask for or imagine! 

So, I've got to keep my patience and God-like demeanor. I've got to keep my countenance.

No matter what happens. No matter how upsetting or heartbreaking. I've got to keep my eyes on God and maintain the fruits of the spirit. 

I have to keep my face to the floor and my eyes to the sky!

All of this is not for nothing. It will pay off in the end.
