Patience. I keep reminding myself that love is patient. One of my goals is to flood my relationships with love, in giving so much I have to discipline myself to accept that love gives and expects nothing in return.

That's a tough one. It is very freeing though. No expectations = no disappointments. Really is a catch-22. To love without reservation, expecting nothing in return, gaining total satisfaction from giving.

My mind and body are rebeling right now. I am beginning to understand more than I want about the war the apostle Paul wrote about. The spirit trusts God totally. My mind and body want instant gratification.

I read Malachi today. I took the lessons to heart. The people said, how did we trouble you? God said, when you wondered where I was.

My PMA is high, my spirit is strong. I feel like I have a wrestling match coming up again tonight, yet I know everything will be okay. My faith in God and my DB'ing efforts won't waver. No matter how much it hurts.
