Lessons from Psalms 62

Truly my soul finds rest in God; my salvation comes from him.

Truly he is my rock and my salvation; He is my fortress, I will never be shaken.

How long will people assault me? Throwing me down— this leaning wall, this tottering fence?

Surely they intend to topple me from my lofty place; they take delight in lies. With their mouths they bless, but in their hearts they curse me.

Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him.

Truly he is my rock and my salvation; He is my fortress, I will not be shaken.

My salvation and my honor depend on God; He is my mighty rock, my refuge.

Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.

Surely the lowborn are but a breath, the highborn are but a lie.
If weighed on a balance, they are nothing; together they are only a breath.

Do not trust in extortion or put vain hope in stolen goods; though your riches increase, do not set your heart on them.

One thing God has spoken, two things I have heard: “Power belongs to You, God, and with You, Lord, is unfailing love”;
and, “You reward everyone according to what they have done.” ~~ (The Message)

Hallelujah! We have perfect peace, as we rest in the Lord, our Savior!
