By now, you’ve probably heard about the bombings in London. This is a tragedy wrought by evil people. It seems like terrorist bombings happen fairly often, but usually in places like the Middle East. This attack on our British cousins seems a lot closer to home.

I’ve spent the week studying the book of Daniel, preparing to preach next Sunday. In his commentary on the book, author Sinclair Ferguson said that the main point we are to get from the book of Daniel is this:

“In spite of present appearances, God is in control.”

If you’re reading through the Bible in a year, you may have noticed that the reading in Psalms is very applicable:

“Deliver me, O LORD, from evil men; preserve me from violent men, who plan evil things in their heart and stir up wars in their heart.” Ps. 140:1-2.

“I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and will execute justice for the needy.” Ps. 140:12.

“But my eyes are toward you, O GOD, my Lord; in you I seek refuge; leave me not defenseless.” Ps. 141:8.
