Hurry up!
I tell myself
anyone listening?
*
Hear my voice!
Not supplication
but demand
*
Make a way
For me, my time
is short and you must obey.
*
Fruit of GOD
is patience
surrounded by Love.
*
Love not World
Rush not in self
wrapped in its own cloak
*
Impatience
impatient
demands its rights.
*
Selflessness…
sought
Impatience fruitless
arrogance its root.
*
Uproot it!
Cleanse now the heart
revoke demand.
*
Purity lives
Simplicity
covers me in Love
*
Grace abound
No more demand
peace — not hurried stress.
*
Let my heart
learn to take time:
be still and know Love.
*
We’re not God
Nor God of time
Love lead on.
*
Tomorrow
Comes after
day unto day.
*
Love this life
Learn patience
humility lives
*
Arrogance
Dies the death
when Love leads on.
*
Sacrifice
Our time moves on
live our moments
*
Breath of life
Love of man
breath humility
over me.

I so agree, but easier said than done. However, we can pray for the Holy Spirit to minister into our lives to make us more like Jesus day by day.
Yes, come Holy Spirit, come, to enable us to grow and live as Jesus modelled for us.
