After the water of baptism, Christian living begins.
Power up your spiritual life with daily devotions.
The Happiest Hour
“Seasons of devotion exert a refining, elevating influence upon all who participate in them. They bring a peace and rest grateful to the spirit.”

Psalm 37: Right Will Triumph
Psalm 37 was written when David was old (v. 25), and like Psalm 73, it counsels us not to fret over the visible success of the wicked (v. 1). “As Christians we should conquer fretting, for in fretting we lose perspective and clarity of vision. Moreover, when we are angry with the sinner, we are unable to help him, and also put ourselves in the wrong” (Francis D. Nichol).
Do not cherish anger against evildoers (v. 8). God holds their destiny in His hands (v. 9). Meekly follow your Lord and Savior, and in time, you will inherit the earth (vv. 10, 11; see also Matthew 5:5).
