"Do not fret because of evildoers, be not envious toward wrongdoers. For they will wither quickly like the grass and fade like the green herb. Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. Delight yourself in the LORD; and He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, and He will do it. He will bring forth your righteousness as the light and your judgment as the noonday. 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 carries out wicked schemes. Cease from anger and forsake wrath; do not fret; it leads only to evildoing. For evildoers will be cut off, but those who wait for the LORD, they will inherit the land. Yet a little while and the wicked man will be no more; and you will look carefully for his place and he will not be there."
-Psalm 37 excerptNo matter what has befallen our individual lives; no matter what dangers arise against our nation, we are to trust in God. No man can bring about the hope and change we as a nation really need. No matter what befalls us individually or collectively, we are to not only trust in Him and fear not...but are to delight ourselves in Him! Yes, this is the time that tries men's souls, but let us each pursue God through these trials and cultivate faithfulness!
