Near and Nearer

Those who devise wicked schemes are near, but they are far from Your law. Yet You are near, O Lord, and all Your commands are true.
Psalm 119:150-151


The psalmist doesn't claim that God makes probelm people disappear. He merely points out that while they are near, so is God. Big problems gain a different perspective when we remember the nearness of a bigger God.
