Wicked are like chaff that the wind blows away

[Those who follow the LORD are firmly planted, healthy, and full of life.] Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.

Psalm 1:4, New International Version

Dutch version / Nederlands > Goddelozen als kaf dat de wind verstrooit

---

    No matter the temporary apparent benefits of wicked schemes and evil power, all these efforts end at the grave. They are swept away, leaving the wicked with nothing to show for their efforts and no Savior to plead their case as they stand before the righteousness and justice of the one true and holy God.

    Dear Father, please help me resist the temptation to idolize or exalt those who succeed through evil devices, schemes, methods or plans. Help my heart seek your Kingdom and righteousness. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
