Psalm 4

Content in God's Care 1) Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness? You have relieved me in my distress; Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer. 2) How long, O you sons of men, Will you turn my glory to shame? How long will you love worthlessness And seek falsehood?... 3) but know that the Lord has set apart for Himself him who is godly; the Lord will hear when I call to Him. 4) Be angry, & do not sin. Meditate within your heart on your bed, & be still. 5) Offer the sacrifice of righteousness, And put your trust in the Lord. 6) There are many who say, " who will show us any good?" Lord, lift up the light of Your countenance upon us. 7) You have put gladness in my heart, More than in the season that their grain & wine increased. 8) I will both lie down in peace, & sleep; For You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety. It is really good that we can be released of our stress/distress. God has mercy on the righteous & hears our prayers. He hears us when we call upon Him. How may times can we lay down & become still? Not to offend in this fast paste world we live end. It would be wonderful if we would just be still. I would love to have this stillness, to slow down & rejoice in the Lord. He is our joy, He lifts our heart to enjoy. To live in safety, peace, & true rest. Getting true rest does help a great deal with stress. And peace on top of that. Wow! And then to know we are safe! Praise God!! He is wonderful! Come on in to His presents & find joy, peace, sleep, & rest. That is where He wants us to be!! God Bless All of You!! And enjoy the Lord! Rev. Londa Picard
