Fret Not

         "Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.  For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb."   Psalms 37:1&2
          I need a special anointing not to "fret".   Seems the evildoers are especially busy these days working their iniquity upon this old planet.     Someday they will be cut down like the grass and wither like all the green herbs are doing here in this terrible Texas drought!  In the meanwhile, I admit I tend to fret. 
          Just yesterday I saw Obama is threatening to cut off Social Security and medicare if the debt ceiling isn't raised.   What?   Doesn't he care at all that he just alienated everyone in the country who depend upon Social Security?  Is there no compassion in his heart for the elderly who would not be able to pay the rent, buy medicine, buy food and other necessities of life?  Compassion?   Obama?   Ha!     
          I have a feeling that OB doesn't worry about the votes he has potentially lost because he either knows he is a one-term president or he knows a catastrophe of some sort will give him excuse to declare martial law, suspend our government and slam us into the New World Order, complete with an Antichrist.   Is OB him?   I haven't a clue but he is an evil usurper, a power mad, demon possessed horrible excuse of a president of this once-great nation.  He'll do until the real one comes along.
          The news is so full of sickening injustices and examples of harvesting the rotten seed sown in the last few decades. Many of the young people are out of control and not the young folks only.   Its a "if it feels good, do it"  society.  Its a topsy-turvy world where right seems wrong and wrong seems right. Danger and injustice abound while honesty and good morals are mocked!  Christianity, if not warped and broken, is scorned or ignored.   Its just as the Word of God said it would be at the end of days. 
          Soon and very soon Jesus shall return and set up His kingdom upon this earth.  All things shall be made new, the lion shall lie down with the lamb, and the nations will give homage to the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings, Jesus Christ.  We have that great hope!
           Before that happens, though, we must prepare for a terrible time such as has never before been witnessed by human kind.  That is saying a lot because there have been some horrendous black periods in history. 
           I pray that God's children, the bride of Christ, will all be over comers, will withstand the flood of evil that is even now beginning to wet our toes. On second thought, we may be ankle deep already!   I ask, in Jesus' Name, to make the Church strong in the strength of Jesus Christ, to enpower us with His righteousness.  Use us to witness to the lost sheep, to be lights in this sin-darkened world.  Save the souls of the lost before the door is forever closed!  Do whatever you must do to draw them to Jesus!
          Purify us and make us without spot or wrinkle.   Help us to "fret" not but to delight ourselves in You.  Let the joy of the Lord be seen upon our countenances even when we are suffering the most!  Give us compassion and love for others.   Let us never deny You or forsake You.   Father, give us discernment that we may only hear and follow your voice and not the seductive song of the evil one.   Praise the Holy Name of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.  You will never leave us or forsake us, no never!  Father, I love You because You first loved me.    Alleluia!    amen
