Senseless people do not know, fools do not understand, that though the wicked spring up like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be destroyed forever.
But you, Lord, are forever exalted.
Psalm 92:6-8 NIV
We don't have to look far to find evil in this world... just open any newspaper. Every day the selfish, those who would rather steal and destroy seem to flourish in our neighborhood, our country, & around the world.
The Bible, this Psalm, this song, this poem sees the reality of the world we live in...but reminds us of the bigger story...that while evil may seem to flourish it's a temporary condition...
While it might be our experience now, the eternal reality is different.

Genesis 15.8-18.ESV But he said O Lord God , how am I to know that I shall possess it? ...When the sun had gone down and it was dark, behold, a smoking fire pot and a flaming torch passed between these pieces. On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram... March 15 was the last day we looked at Abram's story...he was questioning God and this is God's response...sacrifices and smoke and fire and a covenant...a promise... Isn't that what we crave for sometimes? God, if only you'd just show me smoke & fire, a burning bush a sign, miracle, healing...then all my questions would disappear...all my doubts would be gone... 2moro we'll see Abram's response but I think God values our faith in spite of our questions and doubts. That we choose Him anyway #faith
