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
***
Ah, I have kept Him waiting when I ought not,
but He has waited even then.
Always waiting – so patient with my foolishness,
my weakness, my fear.
Our fellowship is with God, and fellowship is friendship,
and friendship means that partnership which, on His part,
is the accommodating of His strength to my weakness.
G. Campbell Morgan

“God is patient with the process!
Think of the enormous leisure of God!
He is never in a hurry.”
Oswald Chambers
***
“Oh, please, show the great power of your patience
by forgiving our sins and showing us your steadfast love.
Numbers 14:17a TLB
***
Now might be a good time
to thank God for His patience!
