“... the Lord took note and listened; and a book of remembrance was written in His presence recording those who feared Him and kept His Name in mind.”
Malachi 3:16
There are times when all of us have wondered whether we are losing out by not going the path of those who do not fear God - those who do evil and still succeed, those who make money by crooked ways, or get a position by dishonest means. We may wonder, now here we are - we fear God, and we are left with nothing! When such thoughts pass through our minds, let us not keep them inside, let us share it with someone who is God-fearing - it could be even our husband or wife, our children or our parents, or some of our close friends. Today’s Word of God reminds us that God takes note of all our sorrows and our complaints - He commands His angels to write our names in His Book if indeed we suffer for doing right. Our sufferings will never be in vain - there is a time with God for rewarding every good man, every good woman.
