Psalm 10

The wicked in his proud countenance does not seek God;
God is in none of his thoughts...He has said in his heart,

“God has forgotten;
He hides His face;
He will never see.” vv.4,11

Read chapter 10
The scariest and saddest circumstance is that there's no thoughts of God in a persons mind.  Without even thoughts of God causes one to be wicked.  There doesn't seem to be any moral code even.  The thought that God's forgotten or doesn't care or doesn't even know pushes one to rebel especially if they think they're getting away with it since not receiving a just punishment right then and there.  How true this still is today, that those who don't even think about God wax worse and worse and don't even seem to care or notice.  In a time of absolute grace and silence from God, it can be easy to think that God's forgotten or doesn't care, but we have to hold on to the sure hope that He will return to judge the world, that He is alive and present today and to understand His current administration with mankind.  Let's seek Him while He's hidden and not let the wicked's proud countenance get in our way!  How do you respond when it seems like God has forgotten or why He's silent?  What encourages you in those moments?  What thoughts of God are currently in your mind?
