Psalm 37

Psalm 37

A Psalm of David.

1 Do not fret because of evildoers,
Nor be envious of 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;
Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.
4 Delight yourself also in the LORD,
And He shall give you the desires of your heart.

5 Commit your way to the LORD,
Trust also in Him,
And He shall bring it to pass.
6 He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light,
And your justice as the noonday.

7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for Him;
Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,
Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.
8 Cease from anger, and forsake wrath;
Do not fret—it only causes harm.

I have been dwelling at my parents house and trying to do my best to co-exist with them. I have done so according to my situation, being separated from my wife, jobless and out of money- of which, I have considered bankruptcy. I deal with the pain of people in my life. Do I consider myself Holy? What about those around me that do not abide in the Law?

I live alone in this world in the manner of fleshly desires to have fellowship. I have no friends to do daily activities, so I usually stay at my place of residence. I live with family, at my parents, where I just don't feel like I get much respect from my father. I am not accepted at my wife's home, rejected because of my loser status of not being able to attain a job.

But, I have been living in a dungeon, held in contempt from those that do not abide by God's Law. Do I suffer for Jesus' sake indirectly??? This is just one of my battles that I contend with, of which I have been on the losing side of. I have had thoughts of going homeless, going camping/fishing for several weeks, just to get away from my dungeon.

"1 Do not fret because of evildoers,"

But todays scripture tells me a Holy sacrament in attaining a victorious existence. Divine instruction of dealing the current situation in my life.

..."Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness."

Instead of feeding on all the negativity that surrounds me, God and given me an "out" of my current standings to "feed on His faithfulness" . "Delight yourself also in the Lord,"



5 Commit your way to the LORD,
Trust also in Him,
And He shall bring it to pass.
6 He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light,
And your justice as the noonday.

7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for Him;

As I go through this storm, all I can do is WAIT for it to pass. God is telling me to trust in Him, because this storm will pass. In verse six, He IS GOING TO PROSPER ME!!!
