    Remembering to be Patient in an Impatient World

    How long do you wait to get an answer from the Lord? I was sitting in the doctor’s office and it had been over 30 minutes since the nurse took my vitals, swabbed me for the flu and left the room.

At this point, I was ready to just walk out of the Urgent Care and be content that whatever was wrong with me would work itself out, or I would just take some meds to ease my pain.

Then the preacher got up to deliver his sermon and within a matter of minutes my whole attitude and demeanor had changed. I received a text message right as the sermon was starting and something that was said annoyed me. A few minutes later I was thinking about a situation that…
