A thought for today concerning the current times: “Let us keep calm and quiet, when wicked men attain to great power and spread themselves as ‘a green tree in its native soil.’ We need not fret ourselves to do evil. Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for him, for the Lord loveth judgment and forsaketh not his saints. They are preserved forever, but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off.” (Through the Bible Day by Day: A Devotional Commentary, Meyer, F.B.)
