Do not fret…

Mountain blue

Psalm 37:1-2 “Do not fret because of evil men or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die.” God’s Word tells me that I should not be continuously and obviously worried, because anxiety hammers away at my soul and my emotions, and can become a constant state of being if I let it. I know that My Redeemer Lives and that His Word can be trusted here. In Psalm 37, God tells me that I should replace fret with trust, delight, and stillness. The image of unmovable mountains is a reminder of these 3 things. His power working in me will enable me not to fret.

 

 

 

 

Trust in the Lord

Psalm 37:3-6 “Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him and He will do this: He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.”
