"Valuable Lessons from Psalm 73: Why Bad Things Happen to God's People"

 Psalm 73 indeed teaches us some valuable lessons.  To begin with, it encourages us to walk by faith and not by sight. 

 God’s Word  is true no matter what our circumstances might look life. 

It also encourages us to get the long view of things and not to abandon the eternal for the temporal. 

 Most of all, Asaph reminds us that we need to spend time with God in worship and spiritual evaluation.  We need to live with eternity’s values in view, and this comes from fellowship with the Lord.  We do not live by explanations, we live by promises and God’s promises become real to us as we grow in our relationships with Him.

 When good things seem to be happening to bad people, don’t get envious of the people or critical of God.  Just find out what good things God wants to do for His good people, and let Him work.
