Gratitude Despite Our Circumstances

Learning to wait takes discipline however, waiting in silence requires yet more. Often, we don’t do very well when required to wait. Many times we do it noisily through complaining or grumbling, often falling into a “why me” mindset. In my experience, when I’ve allowed anxious thoughts to dictate my responses to situations I could not control, I was faced with great disappointment. In reaching this point, I unconsciously chose fear over faith as my constant companion.
