Stressed?

David Powlison writes about Psalm 131 in Stress: Peace amid Pressure.  The Christian Counseling and Education Foundation (CCEF) has a series of small booklets on various struggles in peoples lives (fear, depression, grief, single parenting, etc.)  The one on stress (or find it here) had a striking contrast between what Psalm 131 says and the quietness of it versus a hypothetical "anti-psalm" and the noise of it.  Is your life quiet or noisy?  Does it look more like Psalm 131 or its opposite?  Below are Psalm 131 (Powlison's translation) and his anti-Psalm 131.  

                           Psalm 131
LORD,
     my heart is not proud,
     and my eyes are not haughty,
     and I do not go after things too great and too
           difficult for me.
Surely I have composed and quieted my soul,
     like a weaned child on his mother,
     like a weaned child on me is my soul.
     Israel, hope in the LORD now and forever.

                           The anti-Psalm 131
Self,
     my heart is proud (I'm absorbed in myself),
     and my eyes are haughty (I look down on other
          people),
     and I chase after things too great and too difficult
          for me.
So of course I'm noisy and restless inside; it comes
          naturally,
     like a hungry infant fussing on his mother's lap,
     like a hungry infant, I'm restless with my demands
          and worries.
     I scatter my hopes onto anything and everybody all 
          the time.

Stressed?  We need to live in Psalm 131 instead of where we often live: the anti-Psalm 131.  You might also find some help in a post I wrote last year on the subject.
