Reflections with Andy - Judges 6: 36-40 - The Patience of God

Bless Gideon. Over and over, he must have worn the Lord out, because he keeps testing the Lord. He asks the Lord to do this, then to do that. He says to the Lord, If you are really going to do this, then do this. Then he says, Well, do that. Over and over, he tests God. Now, I’m not saying that you or I should do this. But the Lord’s patience is something, because the Lord knows that Gideon’s story was not over. Today, the Lord knows we are human. And He is patient with us, even when we don’t deserve it.
