Psalm 73

God is gracious to the righteous. Yet there are times when my eyes see what looks like his favor on those who live in rebellion toward him. What I need to keep in mind is that I only see the appearance. My perspective misses a lot. If I focus only on the abundance of the wicked I may neglect to notice the joy and contentment that God has given me. I will be tempted to look past the provisions that are in my hand simple because I am trusting in God as my guide. My senses may entice me to believe that I have drawn the straw, but God's Holy Spirit reminds me that I have access to Heaven's throne room because of the grace of Jesus. In the end which is better?
