God's unfailing love

Psalm 36:1-12
Concerning the sinfulness of the wicked: There is no fear of God before their eyes.
Your loveLord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. 
Your righteousness is like the highest mountainsyour justice like the great deep. You, Lord, preserve both people and animals.
How priceless is your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings. 
They feast on the abundance of your houseyou give them drink from your river of delights. 
For with you is the fountain of life; in your light we see light.
See how the evildoers lie fallen thrown down, not able to rise!
v1-4 picture human wickedness: the person totally committed to his own evil ways.
v5-10 contrast the character of God-loving, faithful, good; the source of life and light and all the good that we enjoy.
v11-12 are a personal prayer, with the answer concluding the psalm.
Why?
Evil men they are no fear of God seems good to them but when the judge time coming they will be judged by God's righteousness.
God's love and faithfulness to the skied so we do not fear the evil men.
God gives ut the fountain of life, so in God's light, we see light and enjoy drinking from God's river of delight.
In contrast the evildoers lie fallen, we will see it.

惡人的惡:有神和他無關,自己作主。以為可以一手遮天,其實遮蔽自己的眼。
基督徒是偶爾犯罪,不是蓄意犯罪。
人定要享受神的供應,重點在聖殿中,不在於肥甘。
得見光是我們的眼睛打開,看見神的道路。不致迷失。神的慈愛與公義,屬神的人可以享受。
想我們要走什麼樣的路?

How?
How priceless is your unfailing love, O God! I take refuge in the shadow of your wings. Praise to the Lord.
