But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me

Micha 7:1-10

What misery is mine! I am like one who gathers summer fruit at the gleaning of the vineyard; there is no cluster of grapes to eat, none of the early figs that I crave.

The faithful have been swept from the land; not one upright person remains. Everyone lies in wait to shed blood; they hunt each other with nets.

Both hands are skilled in doing evil; the ruler demands gifts, the judge accepts bribes, the powerful dictate what they desire—   they all conspire together.

Do not trust a neighbor;  put no confidence in a friend. Even with the woman who lies in your embrace guard the words of your lips.

For a son dishonors his father, a daughter rises up against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—  a man’s enemies are the members of his own household.

But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.

Do not gloat over me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light.

Because I have sinned against him,  I will bear the Lord’s wrath, until he pleads my case
    and upholds my cause. He will bring me out into the light;  I will see his righteousness.
10 Then my enemy will see it  and will be covered with shame, she who said to me, “Where is the Lord your God?” My eyes will see her downfall;  even now she will be trampled underfoot like mire in the streets.

'Why?

Faithful  = upright person, 

No one can be trusted, a neighbor, a friend, even a wife. All of the relationships among people and family are broken.

But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord,  I wait for God my Savior;  my God will hear me.

Micha confessed his sins, this is the fundamental mind of God's people.

Even we do not see any chance or opportunity. our faith may save us today or in the future in God's time.

No one can rely on them, even family.

How?

It is uneasy during this difficult time. but the Lord is my way, my hope.
