  We see it in the news every day. People "err in their heart". They totally ignore common decency by not allowing others to speak, destroying other people's property, screaming slanders, and beating others up for no valid reason. They are being unlawful in so many ways — and are seemingly unable to realize that they are exhibiting bad behavior.
  We might rightfully point to them and agree that they "err in their heart". They are obviously not able to speak civilly. But, why? God's word shows us that they are denying God's love and authority in our lives.
  Psalm 95 begins by praising the LORD joyfully, because He is so great and awesome. Everyone can see God's power in all of creation and in His saving love. Nevertheless, with their every problem in life, some people immediately deny God's love, power, and authority over our being. Their denial of God's love is a most awful sin, so God says in Psalm 95:10,
  We might not act in the extreme as those people do, but, we might still be "a people who err in their heart". People can "err" very quietly by just not trusting in the LORD as they face their troubles in life. Remembering all the obvious evidence of God's power and love in creation and in the history of the Bible is vital in strengthening our faith and hope in the LORD.
  God allows us to face all sorts of trials, but He remains by our side through it all. As we keep on looking to Him, He strengthens us, and gives us the peace of knowing we are in His ever loving hands.
  Let us examine our hearts to see if we are erring, and turn our hearts to keep remembering God's love in Christ Jesus. God kept the promise of a Savior over thousands of years. We can trust Him during our short lifetime.
  Trusting God's proven love, we say, "Hallelujah! LORD, thank You for carrying us through our hard times."
