June 2nd – Psalm 73:26

Psalm 73:26

Do you ever get weary of watching the wicked prosper? Asaph was one of David’s worship leaders in the tabernacle choir. He too couldn’t understand why God let people not only practice evil, but be rewarded by it. But God’s ways are not ours, and regardless of his wondering, Asaph still put his faith in the Lord. For he knew that as long as God was his portion, no matter the actions of the wicked, he had all he needed. To have God as our portion means making Him the source of our happiness and strength. And to be humbled, joyful, and content with all God blesses us with. Evil may swirl around us, but nothing is out of the Creator’s control. And His power is perfected in our weakness. (2 Cor. 12:9,10) So if we keep our hearts and mind focused on Him, we can be assured that God will never fail us!
