Fear...

Hundreds of times Our Father, through the Scriptures, reminds us that we do not need to be afraid. I've selected these verses from Psalm 37. Allow them to sooth and calm the anxious places in your being....

Do not fret...rather trust in the Lord and keep on doing what is right. Settle down, plant your feet where you are and cultivate faithfulness [keep on staying true to the Truth that is in you]. Keep on letting the Lord be your greatest joy, destination and satisfaction.

Keep on committing your way to the Lord, trust also in Him and He will do it [...for He is the secret that makes us succeed, find fulfillment and arrive at His desired goals for us]. Certainly, He will allow every right thing done and God-action taken, at His command and for His purposes, to be rewarded and vindicated.

Rest in Him...wait patiently for Him...don't fret...Cease from anger, abandon angry actions and activities. No, don't fret, it leads to evil doing [and will land you in places you didn't intend to go].

Just remember, God-humble people, will inherit the land and take great joy in the abundant prosperity that trust, faithfulness and delighting in God merits. Adapted
Selah....

Be Blessed,
