2 Peter 3:9 (NIV)
9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as
some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting
anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
Maranatha — O Lord come! This cry of the early church,
especially during times of trial, persecution, and difficulty must be tempered
with the reminder that there is a lost world around us — many of whom are dear
friends and family. Our passion for the Lord's coming must be equaled by our
passion to share his grace with those who have not "come to
repentance" and have not changed their lives to serve the Lord who died to
bring them life. Until he comes, let's commit to do his work of bringing others
to repentance and salvation in him.
Thought for today:
Do I put my all into my service?
