Hmmmm....
Maybe my bias coming through, but I didn't read it like "(your desire for) instant gratification is...."
Rather, to me, seems like JR is pointing out the divergence point between the path to hell and the path to heaven.
"instant" gratification is the desire to see "X happen NOW". IOW, JR is saying the desire (probably all of us feel at some point) to "see this get done now" is the impulse that leads us away from our objectives, from God's way. It takes discipline and spiritual ooomf to forestall and master the inherent impulse for realization of a vision NOW.
That's a really BIG lesson there. Identifying the crossroads, the divergence point, is really key to discerning direction.
And, I don't believe for a second that you've been 'waiting' for years and years, rooftop. :P You've been in the trenches, fighting, even while longing to see the day of reckoning. Waiting is something the observers, the fence-sitters do. Longing to see the realization - that's the heart of a patriot. Different things.
(IMO) JR's not attacking your long-suffering yearnings to see the reckoning take place. He's actually lauding it.
OK, I'll shut up now.
Yah. I know what you mean. I have no idea why I go pedantic antic all the time.
On the other point, yeah, takes it's toll. But know also that we're in the best company; I'm thinking of those who have known about this stuff not for a decade, or a century, but much, much longer.
Onward and upward.
Lol, because you are so sage m8. U help keep the wings of the plane level.
Thank you
Yeah as I've had tinfoil on my head over half my life, theres been no instant expectation for any of this for most of us. Desire to have it over is natural, only a complacent person would be frivolous about it.
