hi joe,
i also want to thank you for beginning this thread. i am being shown by our Father that just when i think i have learned patience something happens to cause me to loose my patience. as i have said many times, the more i learn, the more i have to learn. kind of like something i was told once: consider a circle with everything inside the circle being what i have learned, and the round line of the circle's boundary representing everything i have yet to learn. as what i learn causes the inside of the circle to grow, the outside boundary line of the circle also grows larger. thus, the more i learn the more i have to learn.
i also can relate completely joe to your statement that now the anxiety level is very high if you feel seperated from Him. i know before God started showing me His marvelous truths, if i would do something that i knew to be sin i thought, well i can just ask Him to forgive me and all will be well with me, but now if i do anything which i don't want to do but do it anyway, my anxiety level raises to the point that i find myself so ashamed of myself and reminding myself how i am so totally unworthy of God's love. only through the spirit of Christ in me am i even able to forgive myself so that i can get peaceful enough to remember that God does indeed love me and i am never truly seperated from Him.
i also want to thank beloved for replying to your thread using the scripture references about wives submission to their husbands and how that submission is not possible without learning patience. thanks beloved, your words were truly spoken to me at the perfect time.
i thank God with all my heart and all my soul for my family on this forum.
