From God’s promises to Abraham
And to the nation God formed from him
The measure of God’s enormous patience
Is not a minute, an hour, or a day
Not a year, or even a decade
The measure of God’s enormous patience
Was fourth-two generations
That’s eleven hundred years of waiting
That’s the measure of God’s patience.
I’m pretty sure we all hate waiting. We even hate being in rooms we call waiting rooms. It’s really a lack of patience on our human part. God is patient. Let Him Who will wait 1100 years be the model for my patience, for my ability to wait.
That is my prayer. Will it be yours?
