Oh crap I forgot to blog yesterday.. I'm so mad!! Oh well..Yesterday was fun..went to my cousin's engagement party which was really fun..I'm so happy for them.
I had a good day today..it went by really fast..then I came home and as soon as I started cooking supper the electricity went out..of course! So I layed there for an hour and a half and finally, the lights are back on! (obviously..)
Lately I've been thinking and reading about the fruits of the Holy Spirit..I never really thought much about them..I memorized the verse in Sunday school but never really thought about it. It's impossible to have true love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control without the Holy Spirit..When you have the HS, these fruits will show. About a year ago I started inviting the Holy Spirit into my day..I had never even heard of doing that before. I noticed that it's not as hard to have all of these things when I'm not the one who has to try and master them. (Um I'm so not saying that I have all of these or any of them every day, because I'm human and far from perfect!!)
I think I have the most trouble with patience..I'm always so impatient!! Don't care how, I want it now! Sometimes if I want something or need something, I'll just go out and buy it..but sometimes I think, what if God doesn't want me to do that? What if He wants me to wait, and have faith that He will bless me with these things one day? I guess that can go into faithfulness too..it can go into any aspect of my life..not just material things..Just a few random thoughts..gotta go finish supper now and clean the kitchen..night night.
that is soooo true. i'm not very good at any of those things without a little (read: a lot) of help from the holy spirit.
