Portions: Psalm 37 - 40

Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him;
do not fret when men succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.
Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
do not fret - it only leads to evil.
For evil men will be cut off,
but those who hope in the Lord
will inherit the land.
(Psalm 37:7-9)

I wait for you, O Lord;
You will answer, O Lord my God.
(Psalm 38:15)

You have made my days a mere handbreadth;
the span of my years is as nothing before You.
Each man's life is but a breath.  Selah.
(Psalm 39:5)

But may all who seek You 
rejoice and be glad in You;
may those who love Your salvation always say,
"The Lord be exalted!"
(Psalm 40:16)
