“Patience While You Wait”

“The Lord does not delay His promise. As some understand delay, but is patient with you, not wanting any to perish, but all come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9. When will all this be over?!?!?!? How many times have we said or heard this lately? As the frustration mounts in our society it would be so easy to think God has abandoned or forgot about us during this time. It seems that all the grace and good will towards each other we had at the beginning of this virus has all run out and God has washed His hands of us. It looks like the very fabric of our society is unraveling right before our eyes. Where are you, God? We may wonder silently (or not so silently). Know this, God has not forgotten us. He is with us. He said, “I will never leave nor forsake you.” When has God ever not kept His promises? Notice the verse, He does not delay His promise. God is never late. But He is never early either. He is always right on time. This time is no different. But also know this, He is patient with you too. There are many who do not know Him, and He is wanting to use us in order to reach them with the Gospel. He desires we choose Him and repent of our sin and follow Him. You and I have experienced this, and we have such a great opportunity to tell others about Him. So, will you help us in getting the Gospel out into Ramsey, Illinois, the U.S., and the world? We have so many ways you can be part of accomplishing this. Get involved however you can, and watch God use you for His glory!

Following Him,

Jeff
