An Appropriate Proverb

There is no wisdom, no insight, no plan that can succeed against the Lord.

December 20

NT -- Revelation 11:1-19
We are in the middle of the Woes. Ugly things are happening in this time.
God will call forth 2 prophets who will call down God's wrath. They will be killed and lay dead in the streets for 3.5 days. Then they will resurrect and be taken up to heaven and those below will see a glimpse of heaven.
I am assuming that these are a continuation of the plea of God to repent and be saved. Otherwise, why wouldn't he just obliterate the populace?

Psalm 139
A favorite psalm to be read at baptisms and funerals. The bookends of life, a Baptist preacher at one of my mother's relatives' funerals said. I think that is what is meant by the whole 'hemming in' part in vs. 5. It isn't meant to constrain us, it is meant to protect us, especially, I think, from ourselves.
