Patience

Filed under: Random Thoughts — Joy @ 3:18 pm

Lately in our family we have been learning about patience! I wish that I could say that I am a pro at it by now but alas I am still in just the beginning stages of learning patience! The joy of that is that I get to learn right along with the kiddos! ;)
Today I was feeling pretty good about my patience (always a sign of a downfall ahead). I noticed this afternoon though that I was feeling pretty anxious constantly glancing up to look out the window. I hear my head chanting come on, come on!
Turns out that waiting for the UPS truck to come is a lot like waiting for the ice cream truck to come!!!
We have a little song that we sing at our house thanks to this CD!
Be patient, be patient, don’t be in such a hurry
When you get impatient, you only start to worry
Remember, remember, that God is patient too
And think of all the times when others had to wait for you.
I must warn you that the song is sung by a snail but fitting and helpful even when you are waiting on the UPS truck to come!
I am off to sing some more!

  2. how funny! I grew up with those records (that is showing my age a little bit!) and loved them. I had no idea that you could buy them on CD…how fun!
    And what was the UPS man bringing?
