It is a comfort to know that our Lord is in control even when seemingly bad things happen. He vindicates and avenges on His children’s behalf in His time and way. No wicked one is overlooked.
But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah, are only a small village among all the people of Judah. Yet a ruler of Israel, whose origins are in the distant past, will come from you on my behalf. (Micah 5:2)
