Patience is Vital

Lately there have just been some things in my life that are bothering, frustrating, and confusing me. It drives me insane! I went to devotional yesterday and boy was it amazing! Sister Gee spoke about patience. Perfect timing for what I needed in my life right now! :) I seriously think that one of my constant and ongoing trials is for me to learn patience. I just cannot get it apparently.
Here are some of the key points that I got out of Sister Gee's devotional. Patience is the key to developing a Christ-like life. I love that. It also means that I have a lot of work to do, but it is possible. She also said that we need to put our desires on hold and submit to Heavenly Father's timing. I believe that this is probably the hardest part for me. I believe that it is true with all my heart! However, it is one of the hardest things to do because we all, especially me, get lost in what we want at that moment in time, and what we think is best for us. Putting your trust in Him can help solve all these bothering, frustrating, and confusing things in my life. One other thing that was said was that we need to learn to accept changes in our plan. This I feel goes a long with putting our desires on hold and submitting to His timing. Being able to change our plans helps us be more able to submit to His timing.
I would strongly suggest for all to listne to this devotional talk. It is wonderful, enlightening, and help anyone with situations and problems in their lives that they are facing. It is called, 'Patience: A Process of Perfection' by: Sister Suzette Gee

Here is the link to go to it. :D
