Fret

Proverbs 24:19
19 Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked;

It is so easy to look around you and see lots of people that seem to be doing better then you. It is even easier to want what others have no matter how they may have gotten it. Sometimes evil and wicked men or women got worldly riches, but we need to remember that they are also of their father the devil. We might not have alot in this life but we do have eternal things to look forward to.

Wait

Psalms 27:14

14 Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.


Have you looked at one of those picture that when you are close up they don't look much like anything. Then you take two steps back and you see more to the picture. Then if you move a few feet back you see a pretty picture with many more details.

Life in much like this. You go through a testing of your faith and when you come out on the other side you don't really see why it all happened. Then in a few weeks if you look back you can start to see why things happened the way they did. Then in a few months or years you can see what a pretty picture God has made out of your life.

Be patience and wait on the Lord because he sees the whole picture and he knows what we need in our life and also what we can handle.
