Those that Transgress against us

Psalm 94:12-23

When I said, "My foot is slipping," your unfailing love, LORD, supported me.
19 When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy.
20 Can a corrupt throne be allied with you— a throne that brings on misery by its decrees?
21 The wicked band together against the righteous and condemn the innocent to death.
22 But the LORD has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge.
23 He will repay them for their sins and destroy them for their wickedness; the LORD our God will destroy them.

As I read through this, I thought about all the times I felt like the world was crumbling down all around me and reflected back to those moments. It was without adoubt that when man wasnot there to support me or lift me up, God was always there. I also thought about all the times that I felt betrayed or hurt by someone who was just "evil" and this passage helps as well. Those that transgress against me may have temporary satisfaction or achievement, but God willprevail in the end and they will be destroyed. Is that wrong to feel comfort knowing that they will be punished by God? It may be, but in a way it brings peace tome knowing that I don't have to deal with their actions because God will get them in the end. This may be my way of sick revenge and that tells me that I have not fully forgiven someone if I am still concerned about revenge. So that is something I am working on: True Forgiveness in the same way God forgave me.
