In some ways, this is the most sober of all the Psalms--but it is not somber. In it there is hope and life.
Money, and the things money can buy, are, in every generation, the great pretenders. Ever after Eden, the things that are seen with eyes of flesh have been raised up, above the things that are seen only by the lively soul. Corporal things, though temporary, are amplified to the brutish and the dull. Through literally “fool’s gold,” they usurp the eternal as objects of our genius, toil, desire, allegiance and worship.
The is why the First Comandment--and the Second Comandment are what they are.
This is why Jesus said what he said about God and money.
The one thing that threatens the vitality of the United States at this moment is its great wealth. The LORD has given us the power to become very rich, and now we have set our hearts on those riches. America is dying of success. In the "land of the Pilgrim's pride," true religion has given birth to prosperity, and now the daughter is choking the mother.
My the LORD raise up a new generation whose eyes and hearts and minds are fixed on Him—and my I be a part of that generation.
