Psalm 2:12 Why do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain? The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together against the Lord and against his anointed One."

I can't help but think about all the times that even our Christian nation plots against the laws of God. I think of all the lawsuits. Of all the laws of God that are currently on trial... And I think how silly it must all look to him. We are like ants trying to overtake a giant. We can't honestly think we'll win, can we?? But yet we do. We sting and we bite as much as we can, thinking "surely he feels that!" And he does... But not the way we're thinking. Jesus died for that.

And yet, we think we'll succeed. And to an extent we do on this earth. Judges sit high in their seats and hold the lives of the voiceless in their hands. Those who are to young to speak. Those who are disabled, those whose opinions or beliefs don't matter to them. But their voices are heard by God. I can't help but think that their voices are heard by God. But our human judges and governments give permission to murder them. Without any defense. How silly we are to think that we can overthrow God with our own little self made governments.

What does this all mean to me? I guess I go with the flow to much. I don't want to be too right wing conservative because that would just make me crazy, right? But what's wrong with the crazy ant that's looking up at the size of the Giant rather than trying to bite his big toe. So maybe I should be a little more right wing than I've been before, because the nations are conspiring, and I am either with them, or with God.
