There’s A Bigger Picture
June 29th, 2018
2 Peter 3:1-13
As I have gotten older, my understanding of time as relative has become clearer. Depending on the situation, the clock or the calendar progresses like molasses dripping up hill in winter and at other times, it flashes by with the speed of hummingbird wings.
The theories of time, order, randomness, and the providence of God, however, do not supplant my confidence the sovereignty of God, the promise of Christ’s return, or God’s patience in bringing the day of judgment. There is rejoicing for each person who turns from sin’s destructive path, receives forgiveness, and follows Christ as Savior and Lord, that God has delayed a little longer. However, we must not become complacent with God’s delay. Parents-to-be must prepare for a new baby with changes to their living environment, activities, and schedule. Necessary adjustments must be made before the baby arrives. Holiness is a necessary lifestyle adjustment; it is the Christian’s way of actively waiting for Christ’s return.
