Let him who does wrong continue to do wrong; let him who is vile continue to be vile;" (Revelation 22:11)  

The question that arises in the minds of many today is, & lsquoI want to live for God.  But I undergo many sufferings, hardships and hurts. But how many who do not know God are prospering before my eyes.  The wrong doers are wealthy. 

Even the man of God, Asaph, writes in this way about the lives of people who did not know God in the book of Psalms.  He says, "For I envied the arrogant when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. They have no struggles; their bodies are healthy and strong. They are free from the burdens common to man; they are not plagued by human ills."   (Psalm 73: 3, 4, 5)  

At the same time, God looks at His people and says, "let him who does right continue to do right; and let him who is holy continue to be holy."  We need to think about the final life of these two types of people.  The end of man who does not know God is destruction, eternal fire and eternal torment. But the end of the righteous is peace, Eternal life and Happiness. 

Without distracting our vision over the world, may the Lord help us to focus on eternal life.  Amen.
