May 4 ~ Psalm 37:7
Be patient and trust the LORD. Don't let it bother you when all goes well for those who do sinful things.
Scripture taken from the Contemporary English Version © 1991,1992, 1995 by American Bible Society, Used by Permission.
Have you ever heard it said of someone, “He/she always comes out smelling like a rose,” or maybe “He/she gets by with murder!”? Maybe you have wondered why you have to work so hard when others seem to skirt by and still do okay. Or you see those who take advantage of others to get ahead and never bat an eyelash, and you start to feel like maybe they have the right idea.
Maybe… just maybe… it’s time we quit looking at what others are doing wrong and focused on doing what God demands of us. Maybe it’s time we started trusting God to take care of us and forgot about what the other guy is doing – or not doing. Patience really is a virtue… but it does not come easy to most of us. Being patient and waiting on God to take care of us has incredible rewards. Relax and rest in this knowledge… be confident in your faith. Be patient, and trust the LORD!
