Hey everyone! how was your monday going back to school?


Psalm 37

1 Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
2 For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
4 Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
6 And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
9 For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth.
10 For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
11 But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.



I absolutly love the first 2 verses! Have you ever felt like someone who misbehaves A LOT MORE than you weeps all the benifits? And your left with milking the cow? Is your name the church of God? Then this passage is for you!

People that are slaves to sin may get temporary pleasure in something (name some in your head), but like I said it will only be temporary. Temporary could be one hour, could be one week, could be one year, could even be their whole earthly live! What I'm trying to say is for eternity, we will have the benifit because we were smart enough to realize that Christ died for us to save us, while others think it not to be true or they just think its a game.

Bottom line, NEVER BE JEALOUS OF THE WICKED!!!!!!

I really like this passage. It reminds us to never envy those who misbehave because even though they seem like they have lots they DON'T have eternity benifits because they are not following God's word. Verse 3+4 are telling us that when we trust and delight in the Lord, he will bless us for eternity if we believe:) For example, if some one you know (who is not in Gods word) seems to have the latest technology gadgets or something, it can easily be taken away because that is noteverlsting happiness. People that are slaves to sin may also get temporary pleasure in dating a billion different people instead of waiting for the one. So I think if we just wait and believe in what God is telling us, we will be blessed with more important non-temporary things even if it is in the future such as family, growing stronger in faith, and friendships. Next time we see someone who has a whole bunch of 'temporary' pleasure, we just need to remember that it is not everlasting for them if they don't realize the sacrafice Christ made for us all-Amen? amen.
