Passage: Psalm 37:3-6*

3. Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.

4. Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart.

5. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this:

6. He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.

Questions

1. Who in your life do you trust to come through for you in a pinch?

 

2. Who in your life delights you? How do you behave when you are delighted?

 

3. Who has the freedom to ask you tough questions about choices you make? This would be someone you have committed your way to.

 

Practical help

Have you learned the secret of getting what your heart truly seeks?

I attended a funeral today for the wife of a friend. Her life-verse was Psalm 37:3. Her friends and family testified to the fact that she lived a joy-filled, rich life and will be remembered as someone who truly cared for others as a way of life and had a blast doing it.

Someday the funeral will be yours. What will your legacy be? When someone opens up your computer files or goes through your hidden papers, magazines and photos, will your righteousness shine like the dawn, or will your dark-side be exposed for the world to see?

Chew on today's passage from Psalm 37. Put away the porn, and begin to trust Him to meet your needs. If you do, the future looks bright indeed!
