"For the wicked
have strung their bows,
drawn their arrows tight against the bowstrings,
and aimed from ambush
at the people of God.
'Law and order have collapsed,' we are told.
'What can the righteous do but flee?'

"But the Lord
is still in his holy temple;
he still watches everything that happens here on earth.
He puts the righteous
and the wicked to the test,
he hates those loving violence."
~ Psalm 11: 2 - 4 LAB

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 we feel like running away---run to God. He will restore justice on the earth in His good time."
