Valerie Norberry VanOrden's comment on 2014-12-28 20:16:52:

There are many who are arrogant, wise in their own conceit and comfortable in this life. Psalms says elsewhere "Because they have no changes,they fear not God ". Contrast the "successful " with those who have been chased from place to place for their devout faith. Many times persecution makes a person poor and misunderstood.
