I remember being told something similar in a joking way - to not pray for humility or patience - because you'll get it! But, if I want to become more like God, then those are qualities that I need to have fine tuned. In the end I'll be an even better if I learn how to be more humble and patient, more Christlike person. <br /><br />Another really great book that sounds kind of along the same lines as Seven is The Happiness Project. It's fantastic. Totally changed my attitude toward how I looked at myself, my days and the good I want to do in the world.

Every single time though, when I beg the Lord day in and day out for a desire for Him and to get me out of my funk, He comes through for me. It takes persistence and discipline on my part, but He is always faithful! I've heard great things about Seven! Can't wait to hear more of what you think of it! :)Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17366602859640824325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922558431228740835.post-27728845153691128252014-02-25T10:12:45.133-06:002014-02-25T10:12:45.133-06:00I absolutely love this post! And it is so true! Yo...I absolutely love this post! And it is so true! You ask God to give you patience, and He definitely gives you situations to be patient in! I am not a patient person in nature and when we started trying for a baby, God quickly made me realize I was going to need to work on my patience. It took us 18 months to conceive and ended up having to have doctors help us to get pregnant with our little one. We will be welcoming our first in July. It was one of the most trying times of my life, but I can say, the Lord taught me patience and trust. I hope He does the same for you!Ashley Sandersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16635872615315816989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922558431228740835.post-66868743222992120162014-02-25T08:59:35.518-06:002014-02-25T08:59:35.518-06:00Love this.

I thought it would challenge me too much! It is difficult to make that leap between believing and desiring to actually acting.
