Habakkuk 2:1-5: Watch and Wait for It

The prophet Habakkuk cried out to the Lord, his God. His nation, Judah, was full of corruption and injustice. How long would God tolerate it? God replied that he would deal with Judah by sending the nation of Babylon to punish her. First, Habakkuk responded with a declaration of God's trustworthy character, then he asked for further clarification on this hard-to-believe scheme. After logging his concerns Habakkuk waited expectantly for God to answer.

Psalm 37 (Part 2): Trust in the Lord and Do Good

In part one of my study of Psalm 37, King David tells me not to fret, get worked up, or envious when evil people seem to succeed because they will certainly perish. Rather than fret, explode in anger, and do something evil,ย David tells me what I can and should do insteadโ€”trust in the Lord and do good.
