5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.Aagainst such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23 NIV During this vacation I was trying so hard to not let what my brother says to me get to me. It didn't work at all. I prayed over and over that God would give me patience but I still got irritated by what he said. I made promise to myself that I would not let anything ruin this vacation with a negative attitude. I didn't make it though. But near the end of the vacation some words came back to me from a movie I watched at the beginning of the year. The movie was Evan Almighty. The movie is actually pretty good. Anyway, there was a scene where Evan's wife was doubting, she had prayed and prayed for patience but was getting known. She met "God" and he told her that he doesn't give them patience but provides opportunitiesto to be patient. I thought this was really good thinking. So now am trying to be more patient when my brother says things that I don't kike but are actually really small. I don't react I just ignore him and continue what I'm doing. It's hard but I can do it with the Lord's help. |
