Find Rest
God, the one and only—I’ll wait as long as he says. Everything I need comes from him, so why not. He’s solid rock under my feet, breathing room for my soul, An impregnable castle: I’m set for life.

Wearing the Right Shoe
He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noon day sun. (Psalm 37:6)
Let’s finish up this week in Chapter 17 of Life’s Compass for Eternal Treasure…
The walk through this passage of Psalm 37 has been leading us to a wonderful place. I don’t know if you noticed, but the last verse we covered kind of left us hanging. So what happens after you commit your heart to God? Well, He says, “He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noon day sun” (Psalm 37:6)…
Finding True North
Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him and He will do this… (Psalm 37:5)
Let’s take a look at chapter 12 today called, “Finding True North”…
…We have explored the need to trust God with everything then we went into how to simply dwell in the land. The road didn’t end there though. We continued to follow it through the steps of delighting ourselves in God and finding out what His desires are for our lives. Now we are coming to an overpass. At least this is how I look at it.

Shelter from the Storms
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”
Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare
and from the deadly pestilence.
He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.
You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
You will only observe with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.
Great is the Lord
Great is the Lord, and most worthy of praise, in the city of our God, his holy mountain.
2 It is beautiful in its loftiness,
the joy of the whole earth.
Like the utmost heights of Zaphon is Mount Zion,
the city of the Great King.
3 God is in her citadels;
he has shown himself to be her fortress.
