    God is patience with us. The motivation for patience is the redemption of man. We bear the fruit of patience when we (1) trust God's timing, (2) see the big picture, and (3) use our wait wisely.

    2 Peter 3:8-9 8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness.

    Understanding how quickly life goes by and how long eternity is should teaches us to have the right priorities. Getting to know God in a personal way should be our greatest priority in life.

Worry is irrelevant because it does not change things nor help us cope with problems. And worry ...read more
