Week of October 7, 2007, Psalm 37:1-9
One of the Scriptures for Sunday is from Psalm 37, verses 1 to 9:
1 Do not fret because of evil men or be envious of those who do wrong;
2 for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away.
3 Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
4 Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.
5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this:
6 He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.
7 Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes.
8 Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret-- it leads only to evil.
9 For evil men will be cut off, but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the land.
Heavenly Father, thanks that You are a great God, who takes on all our cares and worries to Yourself. You remind us not to fret. You remind us to be still before You, to wait patiently for You, to hope in Your Word, to hope in Your ways, to trust
You fully and confidently, to commit our ways to You.
Father, thanks for Your promises, Your faithfulness, Your word that says that we need only to hope in You, and You will renew our strength, that we will soar on wings like eagles, that we will run and not grow weary, that we will walk and not be faint.
So Lord, we turn all of our cares and concerns and troubles and frustrations over to You, and we leave them at the foot of the cross. Thanks for Your peace that comes as we are still in the midst of Your presence. Thanks for Your love that showers down on us as we are renewed each day. Thanks for Your joy that allows us to run and not grow weary, strength to meet each new day. And thanks, Jesus, for Your presence with us in the midst of every situation. We come to You. We stay with You. We commit our ways to You in all things. Amen.
May the Lord bless you as you go on your way. May He go before you to show you the way. May He go behind you to encourage you. May He go beside you to guide and befriend you. May He always be above you to watch over you. And may He be within you to give you peace.
In the name of the Father and of the Son of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
