But
do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one
day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day. The Lord is not slow about His promise, as
some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish
but for all to come to repentance.
2
Peter 3:8-9
When
we pray for years for someone, we can become discouraged. We want to see action right now. It doesn’t matter if we are praying for a
physical healing or deliverance from a substance abuse problem or for salvation
of their soul. We wait and wait and wait
some more.
The
Bible tells us that God’s timetable is not our timetable. God is patient and He will do all He has
promised.
So,
let us wait prayerfully, knowing God is faithful.
