God Is Patient
And is unwilling for any to perish
2 Peter 3:9
Read the Bible through:
AM - Isaiah 23-25 : PM - 2 Corinthians 6
The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance (2 Pet. 3:9).

As I write this devotion, we are in the midst of a war on terrorism. The circumstances of this war have caused many people to ask questions about God. "Why does God allow evil to take place?" "Why does God not come back immediately and put an end to all this horror?" These questions may be somewhat tough to answer, but we can find the answer in the Bible.
Today's scripture tells us the Lord is not slow in returning. He wants to give everyone a chance to accept Him as Savior. The horrible events that happen all around us often find people searching for God. Also they tend to draw believers closer to Him.
We need to be the light in the midst of difficult times. We need to lead others to find faith in Christ.
Thank You, God, for being patient and giving everyone a chance to accept Your salvation
