Delayed Gratification

The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. (Psalm 103:8 KJV)

The principal of CJC spoke of delayed gratification during the Parents Information Evening (PIE) today. She counselled the new J1 students to delay their enjoyment for two years.

God also practise delayed gratification. After creating the perfect heavens and earth, it was ruined by sin. He has to wait till the new heavens and new earth before He can fully enjoy His creation. His delayed gratification is the longest of them all.

Cast your bread upon the waters, for you will find it after many days. (Ecclesiastes 11:1 ESV)
