Just a Guy and his Journey Back to God
Are you wanting to move closer to God? Have you had a relationship with Him, but drifted away? Do you struggle to do His will, hear His voice or live according to His will? Well, you're not alone! You and I have the same struggles. Here, I'll share my daily Bible readings, thoughts, struggles AND successes. It's my hope you'll be encouraged and know you aren't alone in your journey. I am just a guy who knows he needs to get closer to the Living God in order to live my best life and fulfill myself. What I'm not is a pastor, theologian or philosopher. I'm not smarter, more holy or enlightened than the next person. I'm just a guy trying to follow God's will.
Just a Guy and his Journey Back to God
Psalm 73 - Why them God?
But as for me, my feet had almost slipped; I had nearly lost my foothold. For I envied the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. Psalms 73:2-3
Do you ever see the wicked prospering and wonder, "Why are they doing so well and I'm barely surviving?" The Psalmist had the same thought and walks us through his ideas in Psalm 73. This Psalm is very similar to the 37th Psalm, which should let us know, it's a topic that's struggled over. We aren't alone in our trouble. Charles Spurgeon writes, "May the Spirit of God graciously apply this Psalm to our hearts, comforting us as no one else can! Is He not the Comforter? And what better cordial has He for our spirits than His own Word?"
Join me in reading the 73rd Psalm and be encouraged!
