A Daily Devotion for Thursday, April 28

2 Peter 3:9

The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

That I am still sitting here, able to get up and start my day, is illustration of the above. If God were not merciful and full of second chances, I would have been gone a long time ago. But even more wonderful, I have been promised eternal life. We know this earthly life is not our reward; our reward is yet to come.

Holy Father, I am grateful for your generous Spirit which lives in me and guides my path. Forgive me, Lord, when I fail to listen or fail to obey. Amen
