PSALM 37 - Have Confidence in the Lord!

He Will Not Forsake His Saints
371 Of David.
1 uFret not yourself because of evildoers;
be not venvious of wrongdoers!
2 For they will soon wfade like xthe grass
and wither ylike the green herb.
3 zTrust in the Lord, and do good;
adwell in the land and befriend faithfulness.2
4 bDelight yourself in the Lord,
and he will cgive you the desires of your heart.
5 dCommit your way to the Lord;
ztrust in him, and he will act.
6 eHe will bring forth your righteousness as the light,
and your justice as fthe noonday.
7 gBe still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;
hfret not yourself over the one who iprospers in his way,
over the man who carries out evil devices!
8 jRefrain from anger, and forsake wrath!
hFret not yourself; it tends only to evil.
9 kFor the evildoers shall be cut off,
but those who wait for the Lord shall linherit the land.
10 In mjust a little while, the wicked will be no more;
though you look carefully at nhis place, he will not be there.
11 But othe meek shall inherit the land
and delight themselves in pabundant peace.
12 The wicked qplots against the righteous
and rgnashes his teeth at him,
13 but the Lord slaughs at the wicked,
for he sees that his tday is coming.
14 The wicked draw the sword and ubend their bows
to bring down the poor and needy,
to slay those whose vway is upright;
15 their sword shall enter their own heart,
and their wbows shall be broken.
16 xBetter is the little that the righteous has
than the abundance of many wicked.
17 For ythe arms of the wicked shall be broken,
but the Lord zupholds the righteous.
18 The Lord aknows the days of the blameless,
and their bheritage will remain forever;
19 they are not put to shame in evil times;
in cthe days of famine they have abundance.
20 But the wicked will perish;
the enemies of the Lord are like dthe glory of the pastures;
they vanish—like esmoke they vanish away.
21 The wicked borrows but does not pay back,
but the righteous fis generous and gives;
22 for those blessed by the Lord3 shall ginherit the land,
but those cursed by him hshall be cut off.
23 The isteps of a man are jestablished by the Lord,
when he delights in his way;
24 kthough he fall, he shall not be cast headlong,
for the Lord lupholds his hand.
25 I have been young, and now am old,
yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken
or his children mbegging for bread.
26 He is ever nlending generously,
and his children become a blessing.
27 oTurn away from evil and do good;
so shall you pdwell forever.
28 For the Lord qloves justice;
he will not forsake his rsaints.
They are preserved forever,
but the children of the wicked shall be scut off.
29 The righteous shall inherit the land
and pdwell upon it forever.
30 The mouth of the righteous utters wisdom,
and his tongue speaks justice.
31 tThe law of his God is in his heart;
his usteps do not slip.
32 The wicked vwatches for the righteous
and seeks to put him to death.
33 The Lord will not wabandon him to his power
or let him xbe condemned when he is brought to trial.
34 yWait for the Lord and keep his way,
and he will exalt you to inherit the land;
you will look on zwhen the wicked are cut off.
35 aI have seen a wicked, ruthless man,
spreading himself like ba green laurel tree.4
36 But he passed away,5 and behold, che was no more;
though I sought him, he could not be found.
37 Mark the blameless and behold the upright,
for there is a future for the man of dpeace.
38 But etransgressors shall be altogether destroyed;
the future of the wicked fshall be cut off.
39 gThe salvation of the righteous is from the Lord;
he is their stronghold in hthe time of trouble.
40 The Lord helps them and idelivers them;
jhe delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
because they ktake refuge in him.

Healthcare Reform 2010 ... the legislation that could destroy the United States of America as we know it!

"Truth will ultimately prevail where there are pains to bring it to light" - George Washington

With the recent government takeover of healthcare and the future of our Republic in jeopardy; I felt the need to voice my concerns regarding this matter. Now, more than ever, we are at a crossroads as a nation. Our heritage is at stake, our identity as American(s) is being threatened and the Constitution that has guided this country for more than 200 years is being tossed out like the garbage. Government control of our lives is increasing exponentially each day and it is time for concerned citizens to get in the game and stop standing on the sideline .. the future of our children and grandchildren are at stake!

There are many people in this nation and around the world that feel the Constitution is obsolete; how post-modern of them, but that is another discussion for another time. I think it is important to underscore one of the many reasons the Founding Fathers crafted this inspired document. They knew that the human condition, which is fatally flawed, would fail to provide proper leadership and become abusive if not restrained by some type of mechanism. Keep in mind, “absolute power corrupts absolutely” and the Founders knew this from their own experience(s) across the pond. That is why they fled to America, but may I remind all of your readers .. there is not anywhere else to sail to!

Our individual rights and liberties are guaranteed to all citizens within the Bill of Rights. Those rights are endowed to us by our Creator and are not to be violated by the Federal Government. We all studied the Constitution and the Bill of Rights in school, but correct me if I am wrong .. I do not remember the right to healthcare cracking the top 10? Maybe it is in there now considering the historical revisionism that is taking place within our textbooks. Healthcare is a good/product that we purchase, not a right granted to us by God .. isn’t that why it is called a “benefit” from our employers? Don’t misunderstand me, the system is not working well and needs to be fixed, but allowing the government to take over 1/6 of our economy in the name of healthcare reform is insane and unconstitutional. It is noteworthy to mention that the government now has its hand, or should I say fist, in the banking industry, the automotive industry, healthcare and student-loans. Yes, student-loans were part of the largest healthcare reform in the history of our nation! Does anyone else see a problem in all of this government control of private industry?

We need to stop and reflect on our history as a country and really ask ourselves if this is what we want? We need to look at this progressive course we are on as a country and shout at the top of our lungs .. STOP! Review history and carefully consider what the ramifications of this legislation could be for our country. I could not care less if you are a Republican or Democrat .. both parties have been infected by the ideology of the progressive movement. And before we start “digging-in” for our respective parties; May I remind you that a progressive Republican “progresses” towards Nazism and a progressive Democrat “progresses” towards Communism. Those two government philosophies gave the world a death toll that was over 10 million, but before we, as Americans, take pride that we would never end up like Germany or Russia .. let us not forget that we have eliminated over 50 million of our own through the practice of abortion, which now has the possibility of being funded by your tax dollars. And while we are on the subject of a woman’s right to choose, may I pose a question? Why is it that so many progressive liberals invoke the Roe v. Wade decision, citing that government has no right to tell a woman what to do with her body, but now it is okay for the government to tell us all what we must do regarding healthcare?

It is time that we put the brakes on this government machine. If we do not, history has already told us what the result could be for our nation. We are embracing the destructive philosophies of Marx, Keynes, Sanger, Mao and Alinsky while rejecting the philosophies of Washington, Madison, Franklin and Jefferson. More importantly, we have forgotten about God! We have turned our backs on Him, and we are foolish to think that the decision(s) we have made as a country and as individuals will not have consequences. Stand up America and let your voices be heard!

Sincerely,

Gut Check Ministries
