Proverbs 10:24-25

10:24 What the wicked fears will come upon him, but the desire of the righteous will be granted. The purpose of lies are to cover the truth. For whatever, reason we come up with to rationalize it to ourselves. We do not want to hurt them, they would rather not know, its not important. All of these are simply self-rationalizing behavior designed to keep someone from finding out something about us. That which we fear will be found out. 10:25 When the whirlwind passes, the wicked is no more, but the righteous has an everlasting foundation. Ah, the triumphal story of good overcoming evil in the end. That regardless of whatever plots are devised, good will ultimately triumph, and for the most part this is the case. The reason, this seems to fail is based on our perspective. We look at it from the wrong time-line, looking at what we want to happen rather than the end game result, that we may not bear witness to.
