Love and Patience.

2 Peter 3:9 

The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward [a]us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.
When we read the above verses we must remember several things.
1. All God's promises will come true. One promise that remains is for Jesus to return and judgement to come. 
2. God is longsuffering. God is patient and loves us very much. This is why Jesus has not already come. He is giving as much opportunity as He can for folks to repent and come to Jesus before He sends Jesus back.
3. In His mercy and love, God does not want anyone to perish! He made us in His image and wants us to be in heaven with Him. BUT He will not force anyone to follow Jesus! Everyone has free will. 
Some let us all pray and share the gospel with others. We also desire that no one should perish but come to Jesus for salvation!
