Just a quick post for today...
Patience lesson for the day = trying to cook dinner in a hurry to a tight time schedule in a cramped tiny house with a toddler at foot pulling things out of the cupboards onto the floor making a challenging situation to work in. Yes I did feel a bit of irritation rising within me at the cramped cluttered workspace...but what's the need of that, silly.

Stop what you're doing for hugs when little niece asks for them = precious last few days with toddler:-)
I was recently reading about the end times. They'll be much need for much patience in those times.
"In your patience possess ye your souls."
(Luke 21:19)
"Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them."
(Revelation 14:12-13)
"And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever."
(Daniel 12:2-3)
It's awesome that even so long ago we can learn these wonderful promises of the future. God is good!
