“2 Peter 3:1-9

New King James Version

God’s Promise Is Not Slack

3 Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), ² that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of ^[a]us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, ³ knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, ⁴ and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.” ⁵ For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, ⁶ by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. ⁷ But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and ^[b]perdition of ungodly men.

⁸ But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. ⁹ The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward ^[c]us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.”

Smart.

Safe.

Sanitary.

I have been completing an endless life cycle promise for God through my brother’s legacy Eric’s Promise.

God made me homeless and casted me into the Saint of John Vianney. This was all for my own protection. When God says that Christ made a way, this is not slack. We must open our hearts, eyes and our everything to what this way is. We are born to serve in one body of Christ. If something is trying to prevent that God already knew this would take place. We must catch up to what God sees and to what our part in His sight is. Think about it. This is God’s footstool. We are at His feet, His command. We do not breathe unless He says so. Why would anything else be different? It is not. We follow the path that He has lit. His ways are higher than ours.

in Jesus’ name. Amen.
