HIS PATIENCE IS NOT FOOLISHNESS
I start this write up by saying GOD’s patience towards mankind is not foolishness, human beings does a lot of atrocities, involve in things GOD could have repented making them; but yet he keeps quiet. His quietness and patience is not foolishness. To be patience is the ability to stay calm and accept a delay or something annoying without complain. GOD is calm towards us, just for us to think and repent; his kindness is meant to lead us to repentance. He accepts delay and he still shows us kindness despite our sins, we annoy him a lot in fact daily; but he never complains. He not complaining doesn’t mean he is foolish.
Furthermore, most of us don’t realize how patient he has being with us. We don’t see that he has been waiting all this while, without our nemesis catching up with us. We don’t care, most don’t even know he sent us his only begotten son {JESUS} to die for our sins and pay our debts; and this same son JESUS is the judge, still coming to judge everyone according to his/her works. All men shall stand and give account for his/her deeds.
However, if you don’t listen you are saving up terrible punishment for yourself; because there comes a day of wrath, the great day of the lord, the judgment day, when all men shall stand before GOD and will be judged. He will give each whatever his deeds deserve. He gives eternal life to those patiently doing his will and seeking for unseen glory and eternal life he offers, while he will terribly punish those who fight against the truth of GOD and walk in evil ways. His anger will be poured on them. Beloved, lets do his will so we may see him in glory and reign with him; he is waiting patiently for us to repent and do his will. Stay blessed and share with others……….

He also hid GOD’s word in his heart that he might not sin against HIM. Psalm 119 vs. 11: Your words have I hidden in my heart that I might not sin against you. Storing GOD’s word in our heart and doing according to it is working on the word. Keeping GOD’s commandment is working on his word. Proverbs 7 vs. 1-2: My sons, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with you. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of your eye. Furthermore, working on GOD’s word is being the hearer and doer of the word. James wrote in James 1 vs. 22-24: But be you doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer; he is like to a man beholding his natur...
