"But the Lord is still in His holy temple;
He still rules from heaven.
He closely watches everything that happens here on earth.
He puts the righteous
and the wicked to the test;
He hates those loving violence.
He will rain down fire and brimstone
on the wicked and scorch them with His burning wind.
For God is good, and He loves goodness;
the godly shall see His face."
~ Psalm 11:4 - 7 LB

Bible Commentary: "When law and order collapse and we wish we could hide, remember that God is still in control. Nothing happens without his knowledge and permission. When you feel like running away.....run to God. He will restore justice and goodness on the earth in his good time.
"God does not preserve believers from difficult circumstances, but puts both the righteous and the wicked to the test. For some, God's tests become a refining fire, while for others, they become an incinerator for destruction. don't ignore or defy the tests and challenges that come your way in life."
