The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. — 2 Peter 3:9 KJV
The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. — 2 Peter 3:9 NIV
Bible Verse Reflection
Every day we live is yet another example of God’s patience with the human race’s children. Let us not be swept into a mental state that accuses God of being inactive and be awed by His incredible grace for every one of us.
We must discover that our lives are in His hands. At His time and in His appointed method we will eventually be in His presence forever and faith will disappear before our eyes and hope will be filled with joy.
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, I praise Your name for the patience you show toward me, Your unruly child. Thank You that each day of my existence is known to You, and you are returning in the perfect moment. It is my prayer that many be converted to Your faith and be saved from the abyss of time. In Jesus great name I ask. Amen.
