Leah and I drive separately to church on Sundays. I speak in the high school ministry at our church’s main campus before hopping into my car and making the trek north to speak at our Green Campus, The Summit. She usually goes to The Summit early to help out and let the kids play in the gym a few minutes before church starts. After church concludes, she follows me home. This past Sunday Leah was about a half mile behind me when I received a call from her alerting me to a guy who was weaving in and out of traffic. Sure enough…I looked in my rearview mirror and saw the silver sports car with a young whippersnapper behind the wheel. He was driving erratic and tailgating people. I love tailgaters because they help me test out my brakes. During these times I often wonder, “Where are the police so they can pull this guy over?”
Why is it that evil people always seem to be getting ahead without suffering immediate consequences for their wrongdoing? David wondered this same thing and wrote these words in Psalm 37:35-36, “ I have seen wicked and ruthless people flourishing like a tree in its native soil. But when I looked again, they were gone! Though I searched for them, I could not find them!”
Evil people will be held accountable, but not by you.
