Today I was given patience to try another way of doing school with the kids. They are getting near the end of the year and it shows. They don't want to do their work or leave each other alone. I was given a huge portion of patience to just ignore them. I didn't nag, I didn't yell, I didn't demand they do their work. I was quiet in my speech and just let them do as they wished. BUT they also did not get their work done in enough time to enjoy many activities I did with the younger siblings, who had listened to me. The Lord gave me the idea and the patience. I think it made a dent but we shall see. Mostly I am grateful for the patience. I felt my anger and frustration would rise and I would feel peace and a sense of purpose. It was a good experience.
God Loves You!
