An Eternal Promise
…scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation.” For this they willfully forget: that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of water and in the water, by which the world that then existed perished, being flooded with water. But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
– Apostle Peter, 2 Peter 3:3–7 (NKJV)
Word of Encouragement
I myself have for 29 years been waiting for an answer to prayer… and still I have not the full answer yet. Nevertheless, I look for it. I expect it confidently… and so fully am I assured that God hears me about this matter, that I have often been enabled to praise Him beforehand for the full answer… Thus, you see… I have also, like yourself and other believers, the trial of faith concerning certain matters.
