Attributes of God - Patience: We continue our study into the attributes of God. This week we look at the Patience of God. The patience of God is probably the most overlooked of God's attributes. I think it is often conflated with God's mercy. There is, however, a real distinction to be made. What exactly is the patience of God? We will see that the patience of God is actually God exercising control over Himself and it serves as a model for us to follow.
