So Much More: Scripture Meditation (Lectio Divina)
Jodie NiznikWaiting Expectantly on God | Meditation on Psalm 37:5-9

This guided Scripture meditation is in Psalm 37 using Lectio Divina.
Waiting on God is hard. This Psalm reminds us that God will act on our behalf – in his timing and in his ways.
It also reminds us to not get caught up in comparison. It will only agitate us, and nothing good comes from this.
So, take a deep breath and allow the Lord to guide you into this meditation in Psalm 37. I believe he has something just for you.
Here’s some links I discussed in the podcast:

The passages we meditated on is as follows:
Psalm 37:5-9, CSB
5 Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him, and he will act,
6 making your righteousness shine like the dawn,
your justice like the noonday.
7 Be silent before the Lord and wait expectantly for him;
do not be agitated by one who prospers in his way,
by the person who carries out evil plans.
8 Refrain from anger and give up your rage;
do not be agitated—it can only bring harm.
9 For evildoers will be destroyed,
but those who put their hope in the Lord
will inherit the land.
