"Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass."
Psalms 37:7
I like the themes of rest and patience here. We get worked up sometimes about things that we can't control, or people that we can't control... about the evil in the world or people who are doing things that they shouldn't. And the Lord tells us here to basically make sure that we are right with God, and he will worry about other people in his own time.
Today, let's focus our efforts on our relationship with God and repenting of our own sins, which is work enough, and "fret not" about other people's actions or sins. :) God will make everything right in the end. Let's have faith in that, and not destroy our peace over things that aren't under our control.
