…Do
you think lightly of the riches of His kindness and tolerance and patience, not
knowing that the kindness of God leads you to repentance?
Romans
2:4
God
operates from love to show everyone His kindness and tolerance and patience so
that we, being dense when it comes to spiritual things, will come to understand
that He is working in our best interests both in terms of earthly matters and
in terms of our coming to know Him.
We
can become callous and not appreciate that people who receive second chances in
realm of earthly matters by earthly judges or bosses or family members are not
receiving this mercy just from humans but from God who invests Himself in
changing human hearts.
God
is the God of second and third and fourth chances because as long as we have
breath in our bodies we have the option of asking God’s Son, Jesus, to be our
Lord, Master and Savior.
