Psalm 37:37 - Observe the upright

Consider the blameless, observe the upright;
     a future awaits those who seek peace.

Psalm chapter 37 has been a powerful chapter. A relative commented about how this chapter was her and her mother's favorite. Kathy Repppart Hameister said, "One of my favorite Psalms... & one of mom's! Here's the Nellie Reppart condensed version: "Fret not, Trust in the Lord, Delight in the Lord, Commit to the Lord, Be Still before the Lord, Refrain from anger, Wait for the Lord, Salvation for the Righteous is from the Lord" Aunt Nellie was one of the great examples of faith in my life. Look around you and find people who are blameless and upright. Follow their example and allow them to inspire you.

Lord, thank you for great examples of faith in our life. Help us to allow their example to bring us closer to you. Amen.
