Patience - Enjoy the Moment

Do you ever want something so bad...and you know you can have it....but you want it right now? I'm in this situation. I know where I want to be in life. I have some goals lined up, but all of my goals are things that take time and persistance. I want to have a very small, successful business. I want to model. I want to compete at a national competition. I want to have 1 or 2 more kids. I want to get out of Fayetteville and support my husband in his career journey. So many things - and none of them are that far out of reach....they just take time. My struggle right now is with patience. I know that God is in control of my life, and I feel like right now He is letting me know that I need to work on my patience. I'm so used to wanting something, and doing it or getting it right then. I've been a bit spoiled. But this time, the things I want are things I have to work hard for, and things that will take some time to accomplish. I can't have them right now. So for now, I will try to enjoy the moment that I'm in. Enjoy the life that I have right now, enjoy the fact that I'm 25 and just beginning, that I can't have loads of success in a career that I've just started, that I can't compete at a national event witout starting at a regional one, and that we have two more years here in Fayetteville one way or the other - so enjoy it. Enjoy my daughter, enjoy my husband, enjoy being young, and to be thankful for the things that I do have right now. If I'm constantly looking towards what I want, how can I ever really appreciate what I have? I'm searching for that balance - to live in this moment that I'm given. To embrace today, because tomorrow might not ever come, and to also stay persistant in my work towards the future. Keep studying, keep training, keep working....and some day, when God has decided I'm ready, it will all pay off...and how much more sweeter will it be?
