Refrain from anger and give up your rage

"Be silent before the Lord and wait expectantly for Him;

do not be agitated by one who prospers in his way,

by the man who carries out evil plans.

Refrain from anger and give up your rage;

do not be agitated—it can only bring harm."

PSALM 37:7-8

Fretting, fussing and worrying are the works of the enemy. God can and will do all things for those that uphold his commands - those chosen to be made whole in Jesus. Baptized new. In this "new," we must give it all to God. No matter how tough, no matter the situation. God knows - Jesus is your redeemer - give in to his will in all things.

To not fret in any situation is to know that God is in you completely. It is not human nature to easily let go of agitation. This is why he calls you to him - to focus your unsettled mind on the one that will calm you. He is the one that brings peace. It is a faithful act to not fret in the Lord - in this faith, be patiently persistent in prayer and meditation of the Lord. The Holy Spirit provides the ability to release the agitation in communion with the Lord. Focus on him - not the agitation and the Spirit will work in you to release and change your disposition. This change from on high will be a permanent mold as you faithfully walk with Jesus.
