\u201cLike a city whose walls are broken through is a person who lacks self-control.\u201d – Proverbs 25:28 <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I hate waiting on people who do not seem to care that I am waiting. ;>) Don\u2019t they know I have been waiting on them? No, of course they can\u2019t, but I wish they could. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wait a few hours and write that letter as if God were dictating it to me. I wait a little longer and rewrite the letter, infused with even more of God\u2019s input and love. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
By the time 24 hours has passed, my attitude has completely changed. My expectations and desire to lose control are gone. The letter no longer has any blame. What remains is God\u2019s wisdom, patience and love. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
