Time spent waiting doesn't have to be time wasted - even times of stillness have something to teach me.
And challenging times are not times where God has deserted me. We experience challenges because Adam and Eve chose for us to have our own free will. But God is there with us through it all, helping us find the good in the bad if we are willing to look for it.
Gandhi: "An eye for an eye only ends up making the whole world blind." Learning to live and let live is key for me. I need to let go and trust that God will take care of others' wrongdoings...I am not here on Earth to police everyone and ensure fairness! I just need to "keep my side of the fence clean" so to speak.
