Sachi's patience with me when I end up working when we should be doing something together
Sachi's understanding when our plans changes - was going to take her to watch the sunset but all day the weather changed and the sun was hiding behind clouds all day
Knowing that the work I had ahead of me was best to be addressed and taken care of then for me to surf and not complete what was needed - all this was the Lord prompting me to get it done
God's constant hedge of protection
God's ongoing patience with me when I go left when He laid out a path for me to go right
God's hand of protection on me when surfing with Kainoa on Saturday - while the sets came in, He kept us safe and Kainoa super happy
Sachi's unbelievable patience with me
Sachi's understanding
Sachi's Japanese upbringing
1) God's Unconditional Love -
Undeserved and certainly unconditional, from a loving, caring Heavenly Father.
2) God's Patience with Me
No matter how long it has taken me to come around, He was never rushed me to come to my senses and know him. Didn't make me accept that He is sovereign ruler over my life.
3) God's Mercy
Unmerited favor - never being able to repay the price for our Lord & Savior, Jesus', ultimate sacrifice for my sins. Being able to come to him, humbly asking for His forgiveness and He doesn't turn from me and say, "NO."
