Faithful Patience…
I couldn’t put into words the feeling I had or have after I finally completed my second self-published book coming October 8th, stay tuned. Even up to hours before I knew I was going to blog today I had no idea what I was feeling. I had no idea really what I was going to be blogging about either, all I knew was that I was going to blog today. As I turned to emotion after emotion rushing through every inch of my body, I still couldn’t find the words of how I truly felt. Then some words did come to me, Faithful Patience. Still wasn’t how I felt but I wrote it down because I knew that was the start, the title. Faithful Patience.
I was still looking for how I felt because I couldn’t put into words Faithful Patience. As I walk into my place the words Faithful Patience was on repeat, which was expected as that is usual when I am in blogging mode. The repetitive words Faithful Patience being played over and over again as I pace back and forth. I started to want to feel the words, I wanted to know what Faithful Patience feels like. As I am pacing back and forth writing down ideas my friend calls. Usually, I would put off most calls but there are a few people in our lives that get a pass, and they are one of them. But this is also the friend that can take a 5 min conversation and turn it into an hour-long movie. I was playing with fire, but I made the choice to answer the phone.
Yep, not even a minute in and I am sitting on my couch. But not in any spot on the couch, but the comfy spot, the one that sinks in real low. Yea I was locked in on my blog while they talked but after a few minutes I couldn’t ignore their excitement, their Joy. Well, that was all it took as the idea of any blog flew out the window as my friend is just happy, laughing, full of joy. I was in a good mood, but I was in blog mode, work mode, my happy place my mode. But still their Joy was too overwhelming. I gave in and joined in on the conversation, and I am glad I made that choice. I was finally experiencing what I was feeling but it was expressed through my friend.
As I finally listen to my friend talk through all their joy, I finally experience what Faithful Patience was. My friend goes on to tell me they have an investor for their idea and the new investor wants to bring aboard others. For my friend that for 20 years has stuck with this idea and hasn’t wavered at all and finally gaining huge support, Faithful Patience. Their Faithful Patience was the pouring out of this overwhelming joy that turned a 5-minute conversation into an hour-long movie. One of the best movies I have experienced in my life. A life changing story of Faithful Patience…A life of Joy…
