A work in progress.....

I have a weakness or three. I have a low tolerance for stupidity. I also have a low tolerance for those that rattle on nonstop without anything "of value" to say. I wrestled with this over the weekend.

I don't like feeling this way. I don't like the immediate urge I feel to turn my head and roll my eyes or to have the thought "give me a break...how stupid is that" running through my head. It's not NICE and I'm a nice person!

I started thinking about this shortcoming of mine over the weekend. Jesus doesn't roll his eyes or think "here we go again" when we talk to Him. He loves each and every one of us, warts and all. Thank goodness for THAT or I'd be in trouble BIGTIME.

So I'm working on being more tolerant of others...looking at others through Jesus eyes. It won't be easy, but I have a feeling it will be greatly rewarding :)

Hmmm.... I am just not so sure He hasn't or doesn't roll His eyes at us....afterall; I am sure we have been stuck in the mud before---in spite of all the warnings and signs before we got there.
