Timing|is|everything

Today, I want to share the statement that has been in the forefront of my mind all week. It's from a song by Imogen Heap called, "Wait it out". One of the lines she sings in the song says, "...they say time heals everything,.. Are we just going to wait it out?"

I think that we view time and waiting as a negative thing . This morning I had a few extra minutes before work started and thought I would have enough time to quickly grab a coffee. When I stood in line, I realized that it was longer then I had thought. Needless to say, I arrived at work 7 minutes late. I came in the door profusely apologizing for my tardiness. My co- worker looked at me and said, " Don't worry about it. We should all allow people a space of an extra 10 minutes in their lives."

I think our issue is not that we do not have the ability to wait for things, but rather that we do not possess patience while we wait.

My challenge to you today is to not only wait for things in your life, but cultivate patience in every facet of your life.
