Things take time.

I know that it is human nature to want things in that very moment. If I need a new car, I want it that day. I don't want to research different cars. I want to look at 5 and pick my favorite. I am usually like that with ordering food. The first thing I see that I really want is what I get. I don't look for anything more. This is what leads me to my blog. I don't want to be that person. I don't want to snap my fingers and have everything come in a moments time. Scientists can sometimes work their entire lives on figuring out a cure and they never quite find it. They never gave up, or thought that their time and effort meant nothing.

I know I will need a lot of Gods help with changing. Right now I am having a lot of back problems. I try taking a medicine and if I don't notice a change in the first couple days, I stop taking it. When I pray to God, I want answers that moment. I don't want to wait a month to hear him. If I ask him to change me I think I should be changed the next day. This is not how it is supposed to be. Changing oneself takes time. Evolving into a different person takes strength, courage, and prayer. I never want to be the person that thinks I have reached my full potential either. I now know in the future that if I pray for change it will take time. As long as I stay strong and continue to pray it can happen.

  1. i am the EXACT same way. if i want something, i need it NOW. if i want something to change, it needs to happen tomorrow. it's so difficult for me to accept that these things do take time and we don't need everything to happen at the snap of our finger.
