Readings:
Psalm 2
II Corinthians 8:16-24
Focus:
Psalm 2:1: "Why are the nations in turmoil? Why do the peoples hatch their futile plots?"
It is an amazing thing that people think that they can run their own lives without God. Some people do this because they think that there is no God, and yet God has made us such that inside us we feel a yearning for him. So at some level we do know that he exists.
Other people think that God is remote from us or doesn't care about how we run our lives. So they go ahead and do things their own way.
Yet God does exist, and he does care how we live. He made us and he knows what is for our good. When we choose to live in a different way, we do so at our peril. Why would we do this? Why do we hatch our futile plots when we have a loving God to show us what is for our good?
