I can't help but fee my own convictions. Lately there has been this one homeless man. He has been put on my heart a lot lately. It really makes me stop and think about how blessed i am. and also how ungrateful i seem. This man is always on this corner, which either means i'm there to much or he is there too much. I think i want to makde him a meal. and go and take it to him. not just give him money. I alwasy found that hard to do, but as I drove past him and prayed God said to help him. I plan to pack him a lunch and take it to him tomorrow.
Moving on....
I have been reading 2 Peter and this verse stuck out ot me.
The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:9
Time. Time has always been my downfall. It took me a long time, and sometimes it still haunts me, that my time isn't Gods time. Patience is something i am working on, slowly but surely. In this chapter God may seem slow to the believers as they faced persecution everyday and wanted to be delivered quickly. God is not slow, its just not our time and America today has become very fast paced. Jesus is waiting so that more sinners will repen and turn to Him. We must not sit and wait for Christ to return, but we shoud realize that we need to live in the short time we are given, we all have important work to do.
