Stirred By The Scriptures

In Psalm 37, David use this phrase three times - “Fret not yourself.”  Another way of saying this is, “Do not bother your head.”  While this is simple and to the point it raises the question of “Why?”  When I look around at life, my own life, there seem to be many things to fret over.  My head gets bothered and my heart is worried over lots.  Well King David had a reason to say this, it was his understanding of God.  In a series of verses he tells us to “trust in the Lord, delight in the Lord, commit your way to the Lord and be still before the Lord.”  Here is his conclusion - God is acting and he will not forsake his children.Maybe if I believed this I would fret a little less often.
