Do What You Do in the Lord!

"Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes." -Psalm 37:7 (NIV)
My daughter's school like many others has a color code system that rates behavior each day.  My daughter know the expectations and does her best to meet them.  Sometimes my daughter worries about the behaviors of her friends or classmates.  She feels bad when others don't succeed or get hurt by actions and words of others.  As my daughter is learning, it is good to be empathetic, but we also have to remember to control our own behaviors!

When we look at our own lives, we cannot spend so much time worrying about the actions of others that we do not truthfully reflect on our own actions and flaws.  We should address the injustices that we see around us, but we should also address areas of weakness in our own lives.  In order to know how to act or react, we need to know God and His will for each of our lives.  God has a plan for us, we just need to be ready to be patient and listening.  We can't let success of wicked schemes distract us from doing what we are called to do as service to God.  It is through patience and communication with God that we can learn to not worry and to trust that God has a plan that will prevail!

Do what you are called to do in the love and grace of the Lord!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for showing me Your will.  Please continue to show me and guide me in Your ways to support Your Kingdom here on earth and for eternity.  Through Jesus I pray, amen.
