Do we let the happenings of the world trouble us and destroy the faith and tranquility we have in Jesus Christ? Are we so worried about what is occurring in our day to day lives that we can no longer see or feel the eternal truth, which is that Jesus suffered so we could be redeemed; and that He has brought us peace and rest? If so it is time we started stripping the meaningless outer layers away from our life of faith, and get down to the one thing that truly matters... the Cross.
Psalm 37 speaks a great deal about fretting, or worrying to the point of becoming anxious, and also about how the wicked will be overcome by the faith of the righteous through the strength of God. It is good to read this Psalm from time to time because it reassures us of God’s greater plan for us, and how He will keep His promises to us. This chapter inoculates us with hope when the evil and wicked in the world troubles us, or seeks to destroy us. We are told in this Psalm of many ways that God is our strength, and our savior, as we stand against the world.
