God is Dead! - Lent 10

David's words in Psalm 10 have resonated with many faithful Christians throughout the ages - why is it that non-believer's have no regard for God and yet succeed in all they do? It doesn't seem fair does it?

Friedrich Nietzsche claimed "God is dead! God remains dead...". And it seemed to David that the people of his day thought the same thing... and they were getting away with it.


4The wicked are too proud to seek God.
    They seem to think that God is dead.
⁵ Yet they succeed in everything they do.
    They do not see your punishment awaiting them.
    They sneer at all their enemies.
⁶ They think, “Nothing bad will ever happen to us!
    We will be free of trouble forever!” - Psalm 10

David's complaint was that these 'evil doers' were getting away with their injustice, wickedness and sin - they were piling misery upon the poor and marginalised and were not even being held accountable for their actions. 

HOWEVER, the truth is that God is alive and God will call each of us to give an account of our lives in the end. Never give up on your faith, even it seems that the ungodly get away with their wickedness. God brings all things into the light.
