When Jesus was on earth 2,000 years ago, He told His hearers that the \u201cday of the Lord\u201d was coming. He said no one except the Father in heaven knew the day or the hour. It is our understanding that God\u2019s patience and His time of grace will endure until the world\u2019s cup of iniquity overflows. According to the Scriptures, patience\u2014the ability to wait\u2014is one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit. The human, natural part of us does not like to wait for anything.

How long?\u201d And God replies, in effect, \u201cWhy are you in such a hurry? We have an eternity stretching before us. Why get excited and irritated?\u201d<\/p>\n
