Many of the government officials are corrupt, the laws support the criminals and rarely the innocent, and there is no respect for authority hence there is lawlessness throughout our land. Everyday there are reports of shooting, rape, robbery, injustice, scandal and the like.
Children are disobedient to their parents.
Parents are abusing and exploiting children. Truth has become relative and compromise is a way of life. Sadly, it is even in our churches resulting in an attitude of complacency and hopelessness. Perhaps we are putting our hope in and our trust in the wrong place. This verse tells us what and Who we can depend on over and over again.
