Psalms 37:1-3 (ESV)
"1 "FRET NOT" yourself because of evildoers; be not envious of wrongdoers!
2 For they will soon fade like the grass and wither like the green herb.
3 Trust in the LORD, and do good; dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness."
Sometimes it is difficult to sit idly by as evildoers continue doing evil while their coffers continue to swell. But if GOD is in control of everything (and HE is) and HE cares for us (and HE does) why should we be concerned with our future?
The scriptures above tell us to "FRET NOT" over the seeming successes of those who are less than honorable, but to "trust in the LORD, and do good" and to "befriend faithfulness"! While I have no "formal education", I trust that the LORD will provide everything I need to accomplish that which HE has Planned for my life! The rich may get richer, but there won't be a rich man/woman trying to get into Heaven, we will all have no earthly wealth at the Judgement Seat!!! The rich will one day "fade like the grass and wither like the green herb", and then what will they do?
If we "FRET NOT" over the size of our bank account, then GOD can use us for HIS glory, to accomplish HIS Plan for our lives! HEAVENLY FATHER, cause me to be more attentive to what I accomplish for YOUR Kingdom than the wealth I accumulate in this world.
