Thought of the Day !!

O righteous God, who searches minds and hearts, bring to an end the violence of the wicked and make the righteous secure.
                                                             Psalm 7:9 (NIV)

 

In a world full of violence and hate this verse can have great meaning for us today.  God, who is righteous, is the only one who can completely eradicate war and greed and abusive power and hate.  He is the only one who can supplant these things with love.  He began this when He sent His Son to us.  And He will finish the process one day when He sends Him again.  It is then that the righteous will be secure.  It is then that we will all sing for glory.  It is then that we will all worship Him with gladness. 

But we do not know when "then" will be.  Jesus said that it would be like a thief in the night.  We must be patient, knowing that God's time is not our own, and that in His perfect timing it will all happen.  Jesus will come back, and Heaven's doors will be opened.  Oh what a day that will be.

In the love of Christ,
