Full of patience?
So, it's been a long few weeks. I've started a new job and my days have been pretty full. Today was another one. It was late, I was practicing the violin with my oldest daughter to get ready for a recital. I don't usually get this kind of time. My wife calls for me to take a break. "Did we really sound that bad?".... yes, thus the practice. Needless to say, I was tired, not ready to take a break. I made my way into the family room and grabbed the scriptures to read with the kids. The kids were not willingly participating, I was cranky and not in the best mood. So while I'm reading I snap at one of my kids, then continue to read. The very next words popped out and hit me: "...full of patience". It was a verse I was reading that talked about the Savior. Other attributes mentioned in the verse were: long suffering, quick to hear the cries of his people, full of grace, mercy, truth and equity. My wife smiled at me, I smiled back, "Looks like I need some more patience and long suffering"
