God is Patient


God is patient.

Wrap your mind around that for a moment or two. The Story of God, revealed in Scripture, testifies over and over again to his patience with us.

His patience, along with kindness, and tolerance has a purpose.

Roman 2:4 — . . . Do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, tolerance and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness leads you toward repentance?

God’s patience, which comes from his love and his desire to be in relationship with us, is designed to bring us to him.

I wonder if my patience toward others would do the same thing?
