On this day the Lord has made . . .

As I was driving home from the grocery store I heard a man on the radio ask what we were leaving our children/grandchildren. He mentioned how he would choose, over any amount of money, the writings from his grandfather . . . if he had left any.

So, I have determined to create a diary/journal of what happened to me on this day(s) the Lord has granted me.

Psalms 37

A Psalm of David.
 
1Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
 
2For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
 
3Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
 
4Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
 
5Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.
 
6And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
 
7Rest 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.
 
8Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
 
9For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the Lord, they shall inherit the earth.
 
10For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be.
 
11But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
 

I should have been paying attention to this Psalm.

 

Talk about life coming with an instruction book!
