FRET NOT, Trust, Delight, Commit, Rest, Wait, FRET NOT
Fret not ~ thyself because of evil doers.
Trust ~ in the Lord, and do good.
Delight ~ thyself also in the Lord.
Commit ~ thy way unto the Lord; trust also in Him.
Rest ~ in the Lord.
Wait ~ patiently for Him.
What great options we have to replace all that fretting. How much better it is when we trust, delight, commit, rest and wait. Just read Psalm 37 to see what great blessings we have from the Lord when we do this.
We are reminded in Matthew 6:27 that worry cannot change things: Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit to his stature?
Remember ~ our confidence is in the Lord. Worry cannot change things ~ except for the worse; it can give you an ulcer ~ but with God all things are possible. Oh, that we would give it all to Him and then do what He leads. The result can be inward peace in the midst of the storm.
Cease from anger, forsake wrath, depart from evil and do good!
FRET NOT
On the back side of the card? ~ Well, I'll save that for another day.
