Today is Wednesday, January 3rd, 2024; Karen's Korner #5028
It's good to be back! Happy New Year!!
The verse I have selected for the 'korner' reads like today's newspaper. The commentary at the bottom of the page in my Living Bible Application was published in 1971. Long time ago. Interesting that the Bible never changes. Neither does human nature!
"'Let's wipe out every trace of God,' they said and went through the entire country burning down the assembly places where we worshiped You."
~ Psalm 74:8 LAB
*
Bible Commentary: "When enemy armies defeated Israel, they sacked Jerusalem, trying to wipe out ever trace of God. This has often been the response of people who hate God. Today many are trying to erase all traces of God from traditions in our society and subjects taught in our schools. We need to do what we can to help maintain a Christian influence but we should not become discouraged when others appear to make great strides in eliminating all traces of God, for they cannot eliminate His presence in the lives of believers.
"From our perspective, God sometimes seems to be slow to intervene on our behalf. But what might appear slow to us is good timing from God's perspective."
