I No Longer!

I no longer have patience for certain things, not because I’ve become arrogant, but simply because I reached a point in my life where I do not want to waste more time with what displeases me or hurts me. I have no patience for cynicism, excessive criticism and demands of any nature. I lost the will to please those who do not like me, to love those who do not love me and to smile at those who do not want to smile at me. I no longer spend a single minute on those who lie or want to manipulate. I decided not to coexist anymore with pretence, hypocrisy, dishonesty and cheap praise. I do not tolerate selective erudition nor academic arrogance. I do not adjust either to popular gossiping. I hate conflict and comparisons. I believe in a world of opposites and that’s why I avoid people with rigid and inflexible personalities. In friendship I dislike the lack of loyalty and betrayal. I do not get along with those who do not know how to give a compliment or a word of encouragement. Exaggerations bore me and I have difficulty accepting those who do not like animals. And on top of everything I have no patience for anyone who does not deserve my patience.

  1. We cannot pour out forever without being filled once again. And we cannot count on others to fill us when we run dry. But the Lord Who created us and gave us life from His own breath also sustains us in all things from His own Being. We cannot be all things for all people. But in Him we remember who we truly are. And when we, being filled with the Holy Spirit, embody our God-given identity, we are enough.

    May God bless you and fill you, guide you and sustain you, strengthen you and renew your hope. May you be refreshed in His Word, and may you receive Him when He knocks.
