Wicked

I came across this verse last night. Food for thought. Something to ponder.

Psalm 82:2 "How long will you judge unjustly and show partiality to the wicked?"

How often do we show a favorable bias to the morally corrupt? How often do we defend?

I've seen the musical Wicked several times. It's incredible. I love it. It originally starred my girl, Idina. But there's a line in the show (repeated several times) that says, "No one mourns the wicked."

I believe the opposite is true. I believe the wicked are very, very deeply mourned. But, nevertheless, the Psalm urges us on to action.

Psalm 82:3b-4 "Do justice to the afflicted and needy. Deliver the poor and needy; free them from the hand of wicked."
