yesterday I requested patience for my recovery from surgery. this am Betty, had to go to town for some business, just a short run. she had mentioned last night the battery had acted up in her car. you all know what happens when we ask for patience. here I am one night home from back surgery.  my old car has a flat tire, but a new battery. God is sooo good. we jump-started her car with my car, removed my battery to put into the back of Betty's car just in case God made a mistake on the first repair. I can't lift the hood or the battery on my car, or the tool bucket. Betty is in transit to Va. Beach. we have no need for patience with God's favor, yet we always try to make provision for just in case. we claim to trust in God for our provision, yet we are expecting the gov. to bail out our financial disaster that has nothing to do with our daily bread. I believe God wins the patience award for dealing with our total lack of faith, trust, and impatience for us not receiving that new house, and car we prayed for a few moments ago. God, thank you for your perfect timing, and patience with your children. Grant us your perfect love and patience for these you have placed in our care. thank you for all that is your perfection.
