Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Cor. 12:8-10 *Danielle* |

Reps: 27,673,663,522,141,060 (power: 27,673,663,522,171) | | | I said Patience. Even though I appear to be the most patient of all people, inside I'm screaming "Get a clue you moron!!!" so...that's the gift that has been given me to refine my soul. I have temperance, but I don't really have patience with people, especially arrogant, mean spirited, rude or lazy people.
The funny thing is...I have unlimited patience with anyone who is willing to try. I guess my patience is reflective of the attitude I'm getting from someone. I don't really think it would be normal for a person to have unlimitted patience with everyone. I think there comes a time when patience reaches it's end.
I thought about choosing goodness. As I do not believe that I'm good per se. Or kindness, because Lord knows that I am not always kind either.
Suffice it to say...there are good days in which I possess all the good fruits of the spirit, and there are bad days when I feel like a lowly worm.
