Moreover, it is well known that a child needs frustration to grow up adapted to social life. And where we doubt and are unable to trust our lord, and where we are continually practically possessed by our own ill will what we want or what we think we need or want at any given time.
Feeling stuck in a cycle of addiction or struggling with co-dependency? Fr. Christophe Lepoutre dives into the often-overlooked role of impatience in feeding these destructive patterns. In this enlightening episode, he explains how impatience can act as a catalyst for other harmful behaviors, making recovery even more challenging. Fr. Christophe argues that learning to wait and trust in the Lord is not just a spiritual exercise but a crucial step towards healing.
