I ran across Rev. 5:13 tonight while reading a commentary on Ephesians. The thought that struck me is that in the end, every living creature will proclaim blessing upon God. This praise will come from the same creation that now works hard at avoiding association with God. Richard Dawkins can rant all he wants, but in the end, the truth wins out.
Perhaps this will help when I feel somewhat overwhelmed at the craziness that seems to be holding sway right now in our national, state and local politics. Eventually, God will be acknowledged and eventually Jesus will reign and things will make sense.
Until that time, the true Church, must take up the responsibility to offer up this praise in our words AND our actions. We must proclaim the truth and be willing to live it out.
Perhaps knowing that everyone praises God in the end will embolden us in our witness right now.
