Psalms 99-101
Dear RTB’ers,
Three psalms today, even though STS has only two psalms on the first assignment (Psalms 99-100). We are still making up for missing four days last year. Today’s readings will be the final correction for those omissions.
Equity, justice, righteousness. (Ps. 99:4) I fear that we are far afield in our country today – and have been for many years, especially with equity and righteousness. Even justice, surprisingly, with a Supreme Court as dramatically split as the whole of the American people. I fear for God’s judgment upon this nation.
It would have been easy to post Psalm 100 in full and call it an RTB post for the day.
David’s list of characteristics of evildoers (the wicked): perverse, slanderous, haughty/arrogant, deceitful, those who fall away (the unfaithful). Anyone in your circle of friends who exhibits any of these characteristics? David says, “…no one who … (fill in the blank) … shall continue before my eyes.” (Ps. 101:7b, slightly edited) So, anyone you know…?? Time to move on…??
Blessings.
