Definition of the Wicked

Check out these verses from Jeremiah 5:

For wicked men are found among my people; they lurk like fowlers lying in wait.They set a trap and they catch men.

Like a cage full of birds, their houses are full of deceit; therefore they have become great and rich; they have grown fat and sleek.

They know no bounds in deeds of evil; they judge not with justice the cause of the fatherless, to make it prosper, and they do not defend the rights of the needy.

Ok, you know me pretty well.  What words stand out to me?  See if you can guess.

Did you guess “They judge not with justice the cause of the fatherless?”

Then you were right.

Wicked men miss how important it is to God that we care for the fatherless and fight for justice for them.

That’s pure Vision 30 people.  That is what I get to do at work every day.   We are the opposite of these wicked folks.

We are all serving the fatherless — at camp, through CarePortal, in HFT every day, and definitely through the ministries of our Care Team.

Let’s not forget how important this is to God as we are blessed to be paid to care for those who are closest to the heart of God.
