terrify them in his fury

Easter Weekday

First Reading: Psalm: Gospel:

Acts 4:23-31 Psalm 2:1-9 John 3:1-8

Psalms 2:5  Then he will speak to them in his wrath, and terrify them in his fury, saying,

It is amazing to me how arrogant people are, how boldly they stand in defiance of God.  Think about it for a moment.  If God wanted to he could do anything, and we can basically do nothing.  We are totally at his mercy and yet there are those who think they can beat God.

The day will come though when they have to face him and then they will shake in fear.  Why continue to play this game and put our own salvation at risk?

Father, help me by your Holy Spirit to know that you are the  creator and sustainer of all things and you can do anything, even things that I can not imagine.

Amen
