God Has Not Forgotten Us

“Suddenly, from their hiding places, they let their arrows fly. They shoot to kill innocent people. They encourage each other to do wrong. They talk about setting traps and say, “No one will see them here! No one will discover our crime. We have the perfect plan!” Yes, people can be very tricky and hard to understand. But suddenly, God will shoot his arrows, and those wicked people will be hit. He will use their own words against them, and they will be destroyed. Then everyone who sees them will shake their heads in amazement. People will see what God has done. They will tell other people about him. Then everyone will learn more about God. They will learn to fear and respect him.”

Psalms 64:4-9 ERV

So much has transpired within these last two weeks. It seems as if God has forgotten about us. I’ve often wondered why God is allowing this to happen to us (black people). We have always been dealt the short end of the stick, and it’s like God when will it change.

When I heard the news about George Floyd, I was upset and full of emotions. It was taking a toll on me because I don’t usually speak out on issues dealing with racism. Then God clearly revealed this verse to me Psalms 64. At that moment, all I do was cry because the verse aligned so well with what’s going on.

While all these things are transpiring, God Is getting ready to step in and show us who he is. While officers and leaders many think they're actions are going unnoticed, God sees everything. You know God says vengeance is he’s. They will not be able to escape what God has for them. In this verse, it says once God punishes the wicked people, everyone else will stand in amazement and realize who’s God is and put some respect on his name. 

To my black queens and kings, God has not forgotten about us! God made us black for a reason. He knew that no other race could endure these things the way we can. Yes, we’re tired of fighting for a change, but when the day of changes comes, it will all be worth it! To God be the glory and power forever!
