Noteworthy Nugget #06 – Patience

alavenderplace

Patience is not simply the ability to wait – it’s how we behave while we’re waiting. – Joyce Meyer

As single parents, it is very easy to use single parenthood as an excuse for our shortcomings. However, giving excuses is not an option as we have little people who rely on us.

In the midst of a storm, stand strong, plant your feet, focus on God’s word and he will order and guide your steps.

He knows patience can position you for miracles and waiting on God can be a difficult thing to do.

Don’t breakdown when you’re about to have a break through. Continuously display patience gracefully, purposefully, and obediently. Then, celebrate when he allows you to elevate.

Noteworthy Nugget #05 – Act Now.

“Be wise in the way you act towards outsiders; make the most of every opportunity.” – Colossians 4:5

View every interaction as an opportunity. An opportunity for God to work through another human being to help you reach your full potential.

Act now and determine how that resource will bring you closer to your purpose.

Noteworthy Nugget #03

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.
Galatians 6:9

To all my single parents who have had that overwhelming feeling of helplessness, unworthiness, or inadequacy, take a moment to brighten someones day. Buy a cup coffee for a friend, make a dessert for a family member, or treat a co-worker to lunch.

Don’t tell a soul what you’ve done and watch the blessings flow. Eventually, those negative feelings will be a thing of the past.

Hang in there and soon you’ll be living in the overflow.
