God is good, a hiding place in tough times. He recognises and welcomes anyone looking for help, No matter how desperate the trouble. But cosy islands of escape He wipes right off the map. No one gets away from God. Why waste time conniving against God ? He’s putting an end to all such scheming. For troublemakers, no second chances. Like a pile of dry brush, Soaked in oil, they’ll go up in flames.
Nahum 1:7 MSG
The Lord is good — But though God is thus terrible in his power, yet he is merciful, gracious, and beneficent in his nature, and is a sure refuge and protection to those who worship and serve him sincerely, and put their trust in him; and he knows and pays a particular regard to all such, so that they are never overlooked or neglected by him; he approves, owns, and preserves them.
