Psalm 73

It took me nearly 3 minutes to read this psalm, written by Asaph. It is tempting, as Asaph noted, to desire the lifestyle of the crooked and vile. Yet Asaph points out that their glamor is an illusion. From God's perspective there is nothing to their lives. They are so focused on self-fulfillment that they never take time to reach out and touch people and find out where they are. So their worldly treasures rot away, and all they have are the curses of their selfishness to hold as they walk into a hopeless eternity.
