But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like one day. The Lord is not slow about his promise, as some think of slowness, but is patient with you, not wanting any to perish, but all to come to repentance.
Time Example…
—> God is different - In timing and understanding
—> Everlasting Father -
—> the best father
—> patient not slow
—> God does not depend on us, we depend on God
—> Consequences if God isn’t moving “fast enough”
—> We don’t live in isolation
—> all of our actions have reactions and those play out in the real world and have real effects on others
—> The same thing goes for what God does.
—> God’s actions and movements have consequences in our world.
—> What is God’s providence for some is punishment for others.
