Elohim YHWH, loves us enough to wait in one place for us to RETURN to HIM, while it may feel to us that HIS Presence has left us, we need to understand that our TURNING AWAY has not pushed Him away, it has only repositioned us in His grip.  

His Hand is still on our shoulder, it only feels different to us because our heart is facing away from HIS!!

2 Kepha 3:9 HalleluYAH Scriptures, puts it as follows:  YHWH is not slow in regard to the promise, as some count slowness, but is patient towards us, not wanting that any should perish but that all should come to teshuva/repentance. 

It would seem, that much of humanity lives in violation of a principle, Our Creator speaks against through King Solomon, that principle is not to carry deceptive stones in your bag to judge the value of things. 

We expect to be treated lightly while judging Elohim heavily or harshly in regard to the standards He has RIGHTLY set for us.

Mishley-Proverbs 20:10 Differing weights and differing measures, Both of them are an abomination to Elohim.
