Psalm 129

Psalm 129 begins with a complaint of unrelenting and unjustified attacks. But the psalms attributes God with the ability to endure these injustices. Though the attacks persist they never achieve victory. The one receiving the attacks is undefeated. Did God suspend the attacks? Not necessarily. But he did enable the faithful to endure the onslaught of oppression. That may be the greatest victory in which we participate in this life.
