I myself taught Israel how to walk,
leading him along by the hand.
But he doesn’t know or even care
that it was I who took care of him.
2 PETER 3:15 (MSG)
Interpret our Master’s patient restraint for what it is: salvation.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
God is patient in his dealings with us -- much to our benefit.
PRAYER
Kind God, thank you for the patient way that you lead us. Help me to catch some of that patience from you because I get stressed out when problems aren't solved in a hurry. Help me to eliminate the sense of hurry from my life. I'm going to bask in your patience and how much it benefits me. Amen.
