Don't You Realize God's Kindness?

A young disciple in our local church, Amanda, sent me this verse of Scripture yesterday saying it was God's Word for her day:

Do you have contempt for God (Lack of respect for God), who is very kind to you, puts up with you, and deals patiently with you? Don’t you realize that it is God’s kindness that is trying to lead you to Him and change the way you think and act?
-- Romans 2:4 (GWT)
 
A good Word from God's Word not just for young disciples, but all disciples.

God has extended undeserved kindness to us, pouring out his favor on us who do not deserve it, and what I am coming to realize is that God is inviting me to join him in extending that same kind of pre-emptive love to the people that surround me. This fresh perspective is helping me re-evaluate the relationships in my life.

How beautiful, Keith -- "pre-emptive love!" WOW!

Love that verse! There is nothing we have done to deserve his kindness...but he gives it to us anyway. There is only one word to say...grateful!
