The Original Logo. Prompt: "Do you consider yourself a patient person? How easy or difficult is it for you to wait for something? Does a delayed reward feel more or less satisfying than an immediate reward?"

There was a time when I was anything except a patient person. I was angry and very pushy much of the time. I wanted what I wanted when I wanted it. Then I entered a twelve step program and eventually became a Christian. One of the things the twelve step program does is help you become aware of your shortcomings and become willing to have them removed. One of my major shortcomings was impatience. I began to pray for patience, even though I knew it meant I would face all sorts of trials. After that I went through several surgeries, including open heart surgery. I had a triple bypass. I had to be patient with myself as I recovered and be patient with others. All in all it took me about three years of every kind of trial under the sun but I am much more patient as a result. One prayer God will answer is when we pray for some type of self-improvement.

I don't even have to think about that. I'd love to wake up and read "Jesus has returned".

My Bible tells me that when He does return there will be no doubt about it. Every eye will see Him. I have been praying for the return of Jesus and I know it is going to happen eventually. I just hope everybody is ready when that occurs, but I know many will not be. It will be there loss I guess. I would not want to be in their place. I thank God that I know I am ready for the Master's return. He will find me busy doing my best to do His will.
