Remember! God is Slow to Anger

S - Scripture
Psalm 86 v. 15 But thou, O Lord, art a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.

O - Observation
I love this verse. There are so many words and phrases to dwell on. But today, I love the three words, "Slow to Anger." Contrary to what the world's perception is of God, you know - smiting, smoting, commendation, the reality is - since God is abounding in steadfast love, he is Slow to ANGER. Lamentations 3 v. 22b- 23, His mercies never come to an end, they are new EVERY MORNING; Great is thy faithfulness." God will forgive you. God will pursue you every day, even after a day of Great sinning. Why?  2 Peter 3 v. 9b, "The Lord is not slow about his promise as some count slowness but is forbearing towards you, not wishing THAT ANY SHOULD PERISH, but that all should reach repentance."

A - Application
Do I appreciate, am I thankful for God's - Slow to Anger?

P - Prayer
Jesus, Thank you for your steadfast love and faithfulness.  Love Will
