What would you say to a basketball player who kept constantly running toward the wrong basket? You’d probably tell him to go sit down. As a coach, you wouldn’t have time for that.
Thankfully, God doesn’t exist in time, and He’s not bound by the same limitations like we are. He’s got all the time in the world, and then some. And He doesn’t kick us off the team for running in the wrong direction. God grasps that none of us is perfect and we all fall short (Romans 3:23). Yet that doesn’t make our rebellion any less serious. His patience doesn’t translate into a free pass to keep running in circles. Instead, it means helping us along as we grow.
If you have found yourself heading in the wrong direction by what you think, say or do—turn around. There’s no time like the present to get back into alignment with God. He wants you to follow Him. He doesn’t want to see you suffer the consequences of a life apart from Him and His rule over your life. So, use His patience for a good purpose.
Do you ever feel like you are spending a lot of time moving in the wrong direction?
How are you responding to God’s patience?
