I have never been a patient person. I don't do waiting very well. AT.ALL. Especially waiting without doing something. I have found if I can do something, even if said something does not have to do with whatever it is that I wait on, I will do better about waiting. However, waiting without being able to do much drives me nuts. Which is where I find myself now. I have two things, major life changing things, on which I am waiting right now.
The first of which for sure will happen. The birth of his child I am carrying. Peanut will be born sometime within the next month or so. From past history with his siblings, I figure sooner rather than later. Within the next two to three weeks. While I can read, crochet, or watch TV, if it were just me here that would be wonderful. However, Peanut's siblings seem to require a more active mom at times. So we muddle through. I am blessed in the fact that they are 11, 8, and 5 so it is not like I have toddlers running around. And they do help out. So we wait
The second thing may or may not happen soon. I think I have shared before that we, my husband and I, are working towards following our call into the ministry. We have an option before us, which we are eager to take, that will help us move in a giant step in that direction. If it was just up to us saying yes, the deed would have been done. However, working in the avenue God has called us, we must work through and with other people to agree and help us settle details. I know God will work how and when He wants for us to succeed, however, not knowing His plans and waiting for a yes or no answer has me practicing my patience more than I'd like. But I guess that is what He wants me to learn at this point, so I wait........
