"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ."
- 2 PETER 3:18
The sermonette focuses on being patient and waiting on God's perfect timing. Waiting and trusting Him as He changes our circumstances and ourselves. It was timely for me.
I've been struggling with unforgiveness for a group of people and it has really been an issue as I have so deeply wanted to love the folks in question. I have taken this to God again and again and then fallen into anger and resentment just as often.
In the "prayer" section of the devotional there was a phrase that really hit home for me and I wanted to share it with you. Here's the entire prayer:
"Father, help me to be content with Your timetable for my spiritual growth. Sometimes I want to grow more quickly than is good for me. Help me be patient with Your patience. In Jesus' name. Amen."
I thought that was a neat way to put it. Thank you Lifeway. Thank you Father!
