Sometimes the heartache is unbearable and I presevere because GOD SAID TO.... this does not make me happy, though and I'm just being honest!

He may be trying to teach you patience. Or He might be trying to get you to Study His Word so that He can show you the answer. Or maybe both.

there's a scripture that says
god will not change his ways if one does'nt himself
it's good that you're trying and keep on trying till it bears fruit and if you did succeed, do you credit wholely to your own self or is it god's will?
so we heard of many couples trying so hard for donkey years but still no child but to some a dozen in a straight row.
Today's technology does not even dare guarantees success. Why?
this is just his way of telling that he is in control so much so that man has to realize and be more humble and appreciative about a greater being out there
Real patience knows no limit
(or else hospitals be emptied..Ha..Ha..)

God is not involved with every detail of your life. Learn this now and you will have great peace and happiness. Does God tell you when to brush your teeth? Does He tell you "in His time" when to go to the bathroom? Does He tell you to eat breakfast?
There is no evidence that God told David to pick up rocks and use a sling to defeat Goliath. David just knew this. His own talent propelled him to use rocks. Was David disobedient? No.
See? Somethings are "OYO" items: you are "on your own". Learn to discern if this is the case. If it is, use all your talents and move forward.

Honey, that's called human nature. I relate to it! I too have been waiting for one important thing to happen, that I can't make happen, and you just have to hang on. Because God created time for us, and he is outside time, that is why "a thousand years are like a day to him and one day is like a thousand years." He understands your frustration though, talk to him (yell at him if you need to, he already knows how you feel) and ask for help in persevering.
It is hard, I know.

It is part of the human condition to be impatient and want what we want when we want it. Being able to trust that God's will for us is best, and if we stay committed to him is one of the foundations of Faith. Of course, make sure you are doing your part to. Sometimes God wants us to take action to move toward resolution.

Well, willing or unwilling, you will wait for things in God's time (however you define God)—your frustration and unhappiness are optional.

think of it like this when you travel with a child, or go walking with a child and the child is slow to keep up what do you say? the childs' time is your time and your time is God's time.
to a child a journey by car of two hours seems like forever 'are we there yet' and isn't that what you are saying on this journey, little child of God?

Make changes in your life to make yourself happy. We don't have to sit back and wait for God. Sometimes He wants us to help ourselves. Continue to pray for strength and courage, but deal with your problems now. Seek help if you need it. Talk to someone who can give you support and/or suggestions.

sometimes i am just like you .but you have to be patient for getting what you want. god didnot say we have to do a lot of things for example he didnot ask the theif to be theif. some of our destiny is happended according to our choices. so all you have to do is to be patient and believe me if anything is going to happen it will and if not so sorry it wont. and for people who died suddenly this is there destiny (nobody lives for every we all going to die)so we have to be good people in our lives so we may please god. and we die in peace.

If you have problems try to solve it yourself.
Iy you cannot believe something, than doubt it.
PS - God protect the brave and not the cowards (the brave are the ones that take charge of their life.They do not wait, they act.)
PS2 - Also, God wants us to be like Himself, that is why He made us like Himself.So...let us Create, be Responsable
