Product Description
LeFan tells his story of how God taught him patience through his personal trials and struggles. But this book is not a tear-jerker about personal hardships. In a nutshell, Patience, My Foot! is about learning God's patience through life's difficulties. Most of us readily give lip service to the need for patience as we rush through our lives. LeFan reminds us through a wealth of stories, Scripture, and his own personal experiences of the importance of seeking and developing real patience. There are riches here both to motivate and inspire. In showing how he came to accept his own physical limitations, LeFan shows readers how to come to grips with life's challenges. The advice is not a collection of sweet platitudes, rather it is nitty-gritty how-to. The book was literally written with the toes of LeFan's left foot. Patience, My Foot! was a featured selection in the College Press Book Club, and received the 1995 Christian Service in Journalism Award presented by Abilene Christian University. This book is a faithful witness to the power of patience and the power God. Patience, My Foot! is rich with biblical truths, personal experiences, practical principles, and inspiring illustrations which can help all of us to become more patient.
