Weekly Verse

"Don't be upset because of evil people. Don't be jealous of those who do wrong, because like the grass, they will soon dry up. Like green plants, they will soon die away. Trust the Lord and do good. Live in the land and feed on truth. Enjoy serving the Lord, and he will give you what you want. Depend on the Lord; trust him, and he will take care of you. Then your goodness will shine like the sun, and your fairness like the noonday sun. Wait and trust the Lord. Don't be upset when others get rich or when someone else's plans succeed. Don't get angry. Don't be upset; it only leads to trouble. Evil people will be sent away, but those who trust the Lord will inherit the land."

Psalm 37:1-9


Reflect:
This passage is kind of like the laws of God. What you should and shouldn't do and their consequences. This is a great passage to look at everyday and notice what you have been following and what you have been committing throughout the day. This passage will give you peace and patience if you obey what it says and will bring joy into your life, a good  consequence from obeying the Lord. This passage also mentions the everyday emotions that we feel everyday but we don't notice that they are the laws of God. It also mentions that we should trust the Lord and he will lead us towards the right path with carefulness and will sustain you. If you obey the Lord your goodness will shine like the sun. This means that if you obey the Lord's laws then your consequence will be great and yet you will also become great.
