Late Night Snack | Romans 5:3-5

There’s more to come: We continue to shout our praise even when we’re hemmed in with troubles, because we know how troubles can develop passionate patience in us, and how that patience in turn forges the tempered steel of virtue, keeping us alert for whatever God will do next. In alert expectancy such as this, we’re never left feeling shortchanged. Quite the contrary—we can’t round up enough containers to hold everything God generously pours into our lives through the Holy Spirit!

-The Message

[1st] | Simple Thoughts.

Ideas held hostage by life and the 1,440 minutes we're allotted each day just doesn't seem like enough.  Days are stolen by traffic and my creative genuis is confined to a cubicle for a quarter of the day.  Where has the last 3-6 months gone?  Ideas from spring weren't executed by fall and now winter is knocking.  Prior, proper, planned but failed to execute. [Sigh] Too much thinking and not enough doing.  This has to cease or else dreams may not be promoted to reality.
