Do you remember just a few years ago many were asking "where was God" (during 9/11)? i love our country and for the most part we are still a God fearing nation. The Lord is our refuge John Rodriguez

This psalm proclaims God's care for the poor and for those mistreated by the powerful. Those who are evil see the poor as expendable and as worthless as bread. However, God does not forget them. Sin does not have the final word. The psalmist is sure that whatever happens, God will restore God's people.

This Psalm (and Jeremiah) describe those who are lost (including us in some ways), and the gospel lesson describes how God finds us. DGinNYC

This is strange, if it is true that "The LORD looks down from heaven on HUMANKIND to see if there are any who are wise, who seek after God. They have ALL gone astray, they are ALL alike perverse; there is NO ONE who does good, no, NOT ONE..."
Then, how would it be possible that "all the evildoers who eat up MY PEOPLE as they eat bread", and that "God is with the COMPANY OF THE RIGHTEOUS"?
Who would be left to be God's people then?
The answer for this would be "Yes, there is absolutely nothing good can come from the evil root of HUMANKIND, for anything good to come out at all, it would have to be from GODKIND."
It's not a paradox after all.
