What family comes to mind when you read these words? Be honest now…
“Because I envied the proud, and saw the prosperity of the wicked:
For they suffer no pain, and their bodies are sleek and sound;
In the misfortunes of others, they have no share; they are not afflicted as others are;
Therefore they wear their pride like a necklace, and wrap their violence about them like a cloak.
Their iniquity comes from gross minds, and their hearts overflow with wicked thoughts.
They scoff and speak maliciously; out of their haughtiness they plan oppression.
They set their mouths against the heavens, and their evil speech runs through the world.
And so people turn to them and find in them no fault.
They say, “How should God know? Is there knowledge in the Most High?”
So then, these are the wicked; always at ease, they increase their wealth.”
(Psalm 73: 3-12)
And what is their future? Well…
“When I tried to understand these things, it was too hard for me;
Until I entered the sanctuary of God and discerned the end of the wicked.
Surely you set them in slippery places; and cast them down in ruin.
Oh, how suddenly do they come to destruction, come to an end, and perish from terror!
Like a dream when one awakens, O Lord, when you arise you will make their image vanish”
(Psalm 73: 16-20)
May it be so. Maranatha. Come, Lord Jesus!
That We All May Be One
