Short but Sweet

I got my hair cut today, went to the fair, worked out and still haven't cleaned. I'll talk about that more later, but right now all I want to say is this:

Life is tough. It's tough when you feel alone. Sitting hear in bed tonight three things have come to my mind, 1) I miss my family and C Kay (that's pretty much an every night thing however), 2) I feel alone, and 3) impatience.

I have a hard time remembering two things:

1) That I'm not alone

&

2) to be patient with my husband.

However with both of these I have come up with two passages (that I need to post in my house, and will tomorrow.):

1) Psalm 23

¹The LORD is my shepherd,
I shall not want.
²He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside quiet waters.
³He restores my soul;
He guides me in the paths of righteousness
For His name's sake.
⁴Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I fear no evil, for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
⁵You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You have anointed my head with oil;
My cup overflows.
⁶Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life,
And I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

God's with me; I am never alone. I forget this all the time, and it is something I need to always remember.

and

2) 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

⁴Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, ⁵does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, ⁶does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; ⁷bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

There it is right there, Love is patient. I haven't been patient and that is my fault.

These are two things I really need to work on. After thinking about these things I feel happy that I am not alone, but sad that I have not been patient with my husband.
