The Grands Letter

Dear Grands,

Psalm 9:7-9, “But the LORD abides forever; He has established

His throne for judgment, 8 And He will judge the world in

righteousness; He will execute judgment for the peoples with

equity. The LORD also will be a stronghold for the oppressed,

A stronghold in times of trouble…”

The justice of this world is often flawed. Sheriff Joe Arpaio of

Arizona says that he was condemned unjustly. President Trump

has “indicated” that he will pardon Sheriff Arpaio. There is huge

injustice in the world-at-large. Contracts far too often are not

worth the paper on which they are written. People promise, but

do not keep their word. Honorable people are disparaged; crooks

escape justice and go free. But, it will not be so with the LORD!

His Throne exists for righteous judgment. He will judge the world

evenly and fairly –with equity. Moreover, He will be a stronghold,

a place of retreat, for those who are “crushed” in times of “distress.”

As the old chorus goes,

Cheer up, ye saints of God,

There’s nothing to worry about;

Nothing to make you feel afraid,

Nothing to make you doubt;

Remember, Jesus never fails,

So why not trust Him and shout?

You’ll be sorry you worried at all

tomorrow morning.

May the LORD bless and encourage each of you!

We pray for you every, single, day.

Love always,

Nana & Dado III
