I hate holding. Not sure about any of you, but I have zero patience and being on hold, listening to that music (or worse yet, that voice telling you to be patient) just gets me fired up. I can be perfectly calm until you stick me on hold.
Most of the time, I can be patient for awhile but my patience is thin. It wears out quite quickly. Its something I've been working on, but it isn't easy.
You know what they say, when you pray for patience, God gives you the opportunities to practice patience. Here are just a few of the ways I have been practicing my patience lately: stoplights, stupid people in traffic, people walking slowly in front of me (and taking up the whole isle) at the grocery store, my children.
What about you, what is something that has been testing your patience lately?
