A Heavenly Perspective

Many golden nuggets of truth await us in the pages of our Bible.


"Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb."-Psalm 37:1-2

When we have the correct perspective, we will look at what appears to be prosperity through the eye lens of God’s word, and we won’t feel envy for the comfort, ease, and success of the workers of iniquity.  We should feel compassion knowing that the life they live at this very moment is as good as it is going to get.  The word fret has the meaning: to be irritated or angry.  We often exert so much energy over things that we should just simply lay down.  When we stir up such feelings in our hearts, our lives do not bare the fruit of the Spirit, (Galatians 5:22-23) but plants the bitter seed of the flesh.  Isn’t it interesting to know that such feelings were prominent even in the time that David wrote this Psalm?

A proper perspective will lead us to the certain outcome of the workers of iniquity.  David describes them as grass that will be cut down and as an herb that will wither.  The once strong and overpowering, and often times overwhelming, will be as grass that is cut.  I have mowed a lot of yards, and when one lets their grass grow for an extended period of time the grass becomes thick and has that beautiful green color to it.  Yet, after it has been cut it only takes a short time to see the brown trimmings lying dead in and around the yard.  Sadly that describes the plight of the workers of iniquity.

A proper perspective will only be truly known through biblical understanding. The more time one spends in their Bible the greater their understanding.
