Patient And Merciful

Scripture: 9 Now the Lord is not slow about enacting His promise—slow is how some people want to characterize it— no, He is not slow but patient and merciful to you, not wanting anyone to be destroyed, but wanting everyone to turn away from following his own path and to turn toward God’s. (2 Peter 3:9 The Voice) We live in such a fast paced world, and we easily forget God’s way of seeing things. We are always in a hurry it seems, and want things to happen quickly, and on our timetable. Patience is not always something that we are good at. God cares so much that He is first of all patient, and then shows us His mercy, even when we don’t deserve it. Thank You, Lord, for Your patience with me. Help me to show more patience. Your mercy for me is great and I love You for it. AMEN I will trust in Your unfailing love forever and ever. I will praise You, and wait for Your mercies. Thank You. Psalm 52
