FRUSTRATION

Posted on by Olaf

Ever seen someone who is frustrated?  Ever been the one who is frustrated?!  A dangerous maelstrom of swirling emotions start spinning when you are unable to do something you once did or achieve something you’ve set your heart on – impatience, exasperation, annoyance, irritation, resentment, bitterness and anger are not far away.

‘I grew up with lots of anger, frustration, and violence in my heart’ – Rose Namajunas

 ‘It is hardly possible to build anything if frustration, bitterness and a mood of helplessness prevail’ – Lech Walesa

Grace has a beauty that is found in the most surprising places – especially in weakness and fragility.

'When we say yes to the grace of God, we are learning how to die' – Joni Eareckson Tada

If you are between a rock and a hard place, it’s there that the beauty of grace can flourish: ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness’ (2 Corinthian 12:9)
