Calm

(photo: Denver Botanical Gardens)

The Lord himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.”

A calm and undisturbed mind and heart are the life and health of the body, but envy, jealousy, and wrath are like rottenness of the bones.

The one who knows much says little; an understanding person remains calm.

For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.”

Stay calm; mind your own business; do your own job. You've heard all this from us before, but a reminder never hurts. We want you living in a way that will command the respect of outsiders, not lying around sponging off your friends.

For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control.

Exodus 14:14 Proverbs 14:30 Proverbs 17:27 Zephaniah 3:17 1 Thessalonians 4:11 2 Timothy 1:7

You don’t have to worry about eyestrain from looking on the brighter side of life.
