and he does as he wishes. - There is no judgment against anyone who believes in him. But anyone who does not believe in him has already been judged for not believing in God’s one and only Son.

and taken to heaven in glory. - Those who live in the shelter of the Most High
will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

he is my God, and I trust him. - I am counting on the Lord;
yes, I am counting on him.
