You are so welcome - and thank you and other FReepers in the Prayer Room who lit candles for me. It is most appreciated - more than anyone could know, this afternoon, especially. Praise the Lord!
Psa 37:1.... Fret not yourself because of evildoers; be not envious of wrongdoers!
.........
Psa 37:7 Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices!
Psa 37:8 Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil.
...........
Psa 37:10 In just a little while, the wicked will be no more; though you look carefully at his place, he will not be there.
...........
Psa 37:12 The wicked plots against the righteous and gnashes his teeth at him,
Psa 37:13 but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he sees that his day is coming.
Psa 37:14 The wicked draw the sword and bend their bows to bring down the poor and needy, to slay those whose way is upright;
Oh Lord, I am so distressed to see and to hear of the wickedness being done and planned with relish by those who hate you and your people. My mind is in anguish and I cry to you in astonishment and deep offense at the arrogance and evil of these people.
Here is what you say to me.......
Psa 37:3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness.
Psa 37:4 Delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
Psa 37:5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him, and he will act.
Psa 37:6 He will bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday.
Psa 37:7 Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him;
..........
Psa 37:11 But the meek shall inherit the land and delight themselves in abundant peace.
..........
Psa 37:16 Better is the little that the righteous has than the abundance of many wicked.
...........
Psa 37:18 The LORD knows the days of the blameless, and their heritage will remain forever;
Psa 37:19 they are not put to shame in evil times; in the days of famine they have abundance.
...........
Psa 37:29 The righteous shall inherit the land and dwell upon it forever.
Psa 37:30 The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom, and his tongue speaks justice.
Psa 37:31 The law of his God is in his heart; his steps do not slip.
..........
Psa 37:39 The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD; he is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
Psa 37:40 The LORD helps them and delivers them; he delivers them from the wicked and saves them, because they take refuge in him.
Saviour Hasten Thine Appearing
http://www.cyberhymnal.org/htm/s/h/shtapper.htm
Savior! hasten Thine appearing;
Take Thy waiting people home!
’Tis this hope, our spirits cheering,
While we in the desert roam,
Makes Thy people
Strangers here till Thou shalt come.
Lord! how long shall the creation
Groan and travail sore in pain;
Waiting for its sure salvation,
When Thou shalt in glory reign,
And like Eden,
This sad earth shall bloom again?
Reign, oh, reign! almighty Savior!
Heaven and earth in one unite;
Make it known that in Thy favor
There alone is life and light.
When we see Thee,
We shall have unmixed delight.
