Sometimes the easiest way to avoid angry or foolish speech is to simply avoid speaking, and to focus instead on listening and understanding others. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2Pet.3.9&version=NIV 2009-07-16T16:38:11-05:00 It's natural to wonder why God seems, from our human perspective, to be so slow to act on some of His promises.
