It's been nearly four months since I submitted my online application to the Peace Corps. I still haven't had an interview.
Peace Corps says that patience and flexibility are two of the qualities that are helpful both as an applicant and once one becomes a PCV (Peace Corps Volunteer). Having previously been both an applicant and a PCV, I agree. Besides, were I to become impatient, it wouldn't get me an interview sooner!
More to the point, patience reflects the state of the heart. The second reading at Mass today was from 1 Corinthians 13. Love is patient. By being patient, you show love. Let us be patient, and thus love. Amen.
