Please pray that I get the financial and I so desperately need to migrate. The stress of it is making me depressed and suicidal. I have not been able to eat a proper meal for 7 days now. God knows what is in my heart so I guess unsaid prayers will work along with my financial aid prayer please... I have been sobbing all afternoon and can't seem to stop.

[h=3]Psalm 37[SUP][a][/SUP][/h][h=4]Of David.[/h][SUP]1 [/SUP]Do not fret because of those who are evil
or be envious of those who do wrong;
[SUP]2 [/SUP]for like the grass they will soon wither,
like green plants they will soon die away.

[SUP]3 [/SUP]Trust in the Lord and do good;
dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.
[SUP]4 [/SUP]Take delight in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.

[SUP]5 [/SUP]Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him and he will do this:
[SUP]6 [/SUP]He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn,
your vindication like the noonday sun.

[SUP]7 [/SUP]Be still before the Lord
and wait patiently for him;
do not fret when people succeed in their ways,
when they carry out their wicked schemes.

[SUP]8 [/SUP]Refrain from anger and turn from wrath;
do not fret—it leads only to evil.
[SUP]9 [/SUP]For those who are evil will be destroyed,
but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.

[SUP]10 [/SUP]A little while, and the wicked will be no more;
though you look for them, they will not be found.
[SUP]11 [/SUP]But the meek will inherit the land
and enjoy peace and prosperity.

[SUP]12 [/SUP]The wicked plot against the righteous
and gnash their teeth at them;
[SUP]13 [/SUP]but the Lord laughs at the wicked,
for he knows their day is coming.

[SUP]14 [/SUP]The wicked draw the sword
and bend the bow
to bring down the poor and needy,
to slay those whose ways are upright.
[SUP]15 [/SUP]But their swords will pierce their own hearts,
and their bows will be broken.

[SUP]16 [/SUP]Better the little that the righteous have
than the wealth of many wicked;
[SUP]17 [/SUP]for the power of the wicked will be broken,
but the Lord upholds the righteous.

[SUP]18 [/SUP]The blameless spend their days under the Lord’s care,
and their inheritance will endure forever.
[SUP]19 [/SUP]In times of disaster they will not wither;
in days of famine they will enjoy plenty.

[SUP]20 [/SUP]But the wicked will perish:
Though the Lord’s enemies are like the flowers of the field,
they will be consumed, they will go up in smoke.

[SUP]21 [/SUP]The wicked borrow and do not repay,
but the righteous give generously;
[SUP]22 [/SUP]those the Lord blesses will inherit the land,
but those he curses will be destroyed.

[SUP]23 [/SUP]The Lord makes firm the steps
of the one who delights in him;
[SUP]24 [/SUP]though he may stumble, he will not fall,
for the Lord upholds him with his hand.

[SUP]25 [/SUP]I was young and now I am old,
yet I have never seen the righteous forsaken
or their children begging bread.
[SUP]26 [/SUP]They are always generous and lend freely;
their children will be a blessing.[SUP][b][/SUP]

[SUP]27 [/SUP]Turn from evil and do good;
then you will dwell in the land forever.
[SUP]28 [/SUP]For the Lord loves the just
and will not forsake his faithful ones.

Wrongdoers will be completely destroyed[SUP][c][/SUP];
the offspring of the wicked will perish.
[SUP]29 [/SUP]The righteous will inherit the land
and dwell in it forever.

[SUP]30 [/SUP]The mouths of the righteous utter wisdom,
and their tongues speak what is just.
[SUP]31 [/SUP]The law of their God is in their hearts;
their feet do not slip.

[SUP]32 [/SUP]The wicked lie in wait for the righteous,
intent on putting them to death;
[SUP]33 [/SUP]but the Lord will not leave them in the power of the wicked
or let them be condemned when brought to trial.

[SUP]34 [/SUP]Hope in the Lord
and keep his way.
He will exalt you to inherit the land;
when the wicked are destroyed, you will see it.

[SUP]35 [/SUP]I have seen a wicked and ruthless man
flourishing like a luxuriant native tree,
[SUP]36 [/SUP]but he soon passed away and was no more;
though I looked for him, he could not be found.

[SUP]37 [/SUP]Consider the blameless, observe the upright;
a future awaits those who seek peace.[SUP][d][/SUP]
[SUP]38 [/SUP]But all sinners will be destroyed;
there will be no future[SUP][e][/SUP] for the wicked.

[SUP]39 [/SUP]The salvation of the righteous comes from the Lord;
he is their stronghold in time of trouble.
[SUP]40 [/SUP]The Lord helps them and delivers them;
he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
because they take refuge in him.

[SUP]19 [/SUP]Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; [SUP]20 [/SUP]you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.
