2 Things: You Are Strong, and You Love Me

 Life is hard sometimes and I don't understand it. But I have a God who tells me to trust him and NOT my own understanding, and to acknowledge him in all my ways...because he will direct my paths.


Psalm 62

My soul finds rest in God alone; 
my salvation comes from him. 
He alone is my rock and my salvation,
He is my fortress, 
I will never be shaken.

How long will you assault a man?
Would all of you throw him down -- this leaning wall,
this tottering fence?
They fully intend to topple him from his lofty place;
they take delight in lies.
With their mouths they bless,
but in their hearts they curse.
                                                    Selah

Find rest, O my soul, 
in God alone; 
my hope comes from him.
He alone 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, O people;
pour out your hearts to him,
for God is our refuge.
                                                   Selah

Lowborn men 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 take pride in stolen goods;
though your riches increase,
do not set your heart on them.

One thing God has spoken,
two things have I heard:
that you, O God, are strong, 
and that you, O Lord, are loving.

Surely you will reward each person
according to what he has done.
