18 Oct 2007

18 Oct - Jeremiah 31:27-32:44; 1 Timothy 3; Psalm 88; Proverbs 25:20-22

Psa 88:14 O Lord, why do you cast my soul away?Why do you hide your face from me?15 Afflicted and close to death from my youth up,I suffer your terrors; I am helpless. [10]16 Your wrath has swept over me;your dreadful assaults destroy me.

Why is the Psalmist calling out to a God that has afflict him with troubles and cause him terrible things?

Least of all he call. Yoke our spirit that pride has no space, let the strength of God be the one that leads us. Troubles do come and life is not just without some of it. Let there be peace, but peace cannot be understood without the environment in turmoil. Moreover, the troubles were stir up not because God wants to test your faith, but it was because of the consequence of sins. Least of all, the psamist acknowledge his worng actions and cry unto God.

Therefore fear God, repent for God judges the heart.
