Famous Brenda Seefeldt Amodea Quotes

“We often don’t have the patience to wait. We want some control over the outcome. We want to know the outcome. We believe deeply that if we could just know the outcome we will make it through. We treat God like a vending machine with an expected outcome after we put our something in. When we do this our relationship with God is transactional.”

“Waiting requires patience. There are three words in that sentence that nobody likes. Patience is not passivity. To be patient doesn’t mean you get to be idle and wait for something to change. I don’t get to “let go and let God.” I can’t “easy button” this to God. As if I actually could. I must stay in the tension.”
