Anyone But Him

Anyone But Him

They are right! The Lord and his Anointed One are the greatest threats in the universe. He does restrain our hearts. He does rebuke our desires. He does condemn our sin. He will hold each of us responsible for our failure to use and our abuse of his creation and our failure to love and the harm we do to each other. We should say, “Anyone but him!” But we cannot escape. We cannot hide. God reacts to our rebellion as we might react to the ferocious barks from an adorable little puppy, “Isn’t that cute!” The one who is seated in heaven laughs. The Lord scoffs at them. (Psalm 2:4)
