Stand Tall. Be Patient. Have a great attitude!


I, too, believe in a loving Father in Heaven. I believe that just like an earthly father, He wants us to succeed and he applauds our every effort. I believe He wants us to Stand Tall, keeping our chin up all the while being humble and teachable.


I believe that He must get terribly frustrated at a lot of the decisions that we, His sons and daughters, make on this earth! But He is ever loving. His hand is always outstretched to us. He is always there. He has set the perfect example for us. We should also deal kindly with those people who frustrate us!


Patience is a virtue. My great grandma Esetlla always said that. She also said "pretty is as pretty does" which also applies to this little blog post of a positive, higher way of thinking!

So truly to be patient means we must calm our tempers, close our mouths, and be calm. It means we must refrain from what our body is screaming out to do! It means we must train ourselves to be calm in the face of frustration! We can do it! We are sons and daughters of a loving Father in Heaven, who wants us to become like Him and like His son, Jesus Christ. We have it in us. It's in our royal hereditary!

I am still learning patience, with help I will get there. Every day I learn something new, a lot from my kids and grandkids. Thank you, Estella, for teaching us to act pretty and then we are pretty.
