"David was greatly distressed… but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God" (1 Samuel 30:6). "Fret not thyself because of evildoers… Trust in the LORD… Delight thyself also in the LORD… Commit thy way unto the LORD… Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for Him… the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: He is their strength in the time of trouble. And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: He shall deliver them…and save them, because they trust in Him" (Psalm 37:1-7,39,40).
Instead of
fretting, we should pray
And trust the
Lord to find His rest.
This principle
was on display
When David
greatly was distressed.
When there was
no more strength to fight,
And David's friends
became his foes,
He trusted God and
found delight
As help and
courage from Him rose.
How often do we tend
to fret
Instead of
trusting God alone?
We're called to pray
and not forget
The help He sends
from heaven's throne.
We thank You for
this freedom, Lord,
From fretting as
we trust in You
And thereby find
our strength restored
To do what we
are called to do.
