The theory on Patients

Patients, is an on going proses that can never be completed. If a man can wait for 20min before he loses his temper he must be put in situations where he must wait 20min or longer to improve.

There came a time when this man will reach a place where he can wait 2 hours before getting frustrated. This is the point where the next step sucks a bit. In order to improve on waiting more than 2 hours something big needs to happen. Waiting more than 2 hours can change the days planning and get very long.

There was also the idea that, if you are waiting for a long time and loose you temper, you would fail the test but still improved your time limit and the test would be over. Thus the waiting period will be over and that what ever you were waiting for will come to you. with in a very shot time.

This theory was put together in Egypt when Frikkie and I sat next to the road. Our friend was on his way but got stuck in traffic so badly that he was  unable to move. The rest of the team was in the building.

From 18:00 to 21:00 we sat next to the road waiting and knowing he could came at any time. The last 30 seconds was the best. We saw a car coming. and it was big enough to take all 6 of us. Frikkie said: "This is him" I agreed in faith and said: "Yes, lets stand up in faith, this is him." we stood up and had big smiles because this was the man we waited for, the wait is over... but the car drove passed without even slowing  down. I was a bit disappointed and was willing to wait some more. Before we sat down again, out of nowhere a man stood next to us. I think he may have teleported there, because I did not see him coming at all... O well. But the great thing was to see that it was our friend that we waited for.

Not long before this happened, I asked God to give me some time to talk to Frikkie. I wanted to ask him a few thing and learn a bit more about trusting God. A couple of minutes after I went out into the street to start waiting out side, Frikkie came to wait with me. While Frikkie and I sat there we had a great chat and I didn't mind the wait because this is what I asked for. (sorry if you waited long or got stuck into traffic because of what I asked, but you know God every thing works together for the good to those that love Him.)

The next day we spent some time at a death school and played with some of the kids that were there. The day after that our friend took us to a place out side of Cairo. This was where we got to know him a little better. He is an amazing man. He even knows a bit of Koi-San (the language that they speak in "The gods must be crazy") I would like to know him way better.

We will use this time to practice patients - Phineas Flinn
