eXpress care for the eXasperated – Bible First-Aid from A to Z

Extra! Extra! God is excited about explaining His excellent care. What’s more, His specialty is helping those who have reached the end of themselves. He enjoys fixing foibles, fending off foes, and frustrating those that try to fight His beloved ones.

 

When we have nearly lost our wits, and we don’t know how we can continue, He loves to step in and help us up and out.

We just have to ask for God's help… and then prepare to exclaim His praises.

Don’t be upset because of sinful people.
    Don’t be jealous of those who do wrong. Like grass, they will soon dry up.
    Like green plants, they will soon die.

Trust in the Lord and do good.
    Then you will live in the land and enjoy its food. Find your delight in the Lord.
    Then he will give you everything your heart really wants.

Commit your life to the Lord.
    Here is what he will do if you trust in him. He will make your godly ways shine like the dawn.
    He will make your honest life shine like the sun at noon.

Be still. Be patient. Wait for the Lord to act.
    Don’t be upset when other people succeed.
    Don’t be upset when they carry out their evil plans.

Keep from being angry. Turn away from anger.
    Don’t be upset. That only leads to evil. Sinful people will be cut off from the land.
    But it will be given to those who put their hope in the Lord.

In a little while, there won’t be any more sinners.
    Even if you look for them, you won’t be able to find them. But those who are free of pride will be given the land.
    They will enjoy great peace.

(Psalm 37:1-11, NIrV)

I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid. (John 14:27, New Living Translation)
