We read in Jeremiah chapter 12 when he asks God why does He permit the wickedness to occur in the land.
You are always righteous, oh Lord, when I bring a case before you. Yet I would speak with you about your justice: Why does the way of the wicked prosper? Why do all the faithless live at ease? (Jeremiah 12:1). You have planted them and they have taken root; they grow and bear fruit. You are always on their lips but far from their hearts (Jeremiah 12:2). Yet you know me, oh Lord; you see me and test my thought about you. Drag them off like sheep to be butchered! Set them apart for the day of slaughter! (Jeremiah 12:3). How long will the land lie parched and the grass in every field withered? Because those who live in it are wicked, the animals and birds have perished. Moreover, the people are saying “He will not see what happens to us” (Jeremiah 12:4).
Thought for today: no-one is more secure than those in God’s hands.
Thought for the future: trust in God today and prepare for your future. Where will you spend your eternity?
