I crave stability and look for it in countless places, some of which I’m too ashamed to admit. By a well-established routine, perfectly-ordered home, and carefully-managed relationships, I attempt to craft a world of consistency and security in which I can breathe easy. After all, everything has been taken care of, every detail attended to.
But there’s good news! Psalm 62:5-6 speaks to my heart with the truth I so desperately need - 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.
Psalm 62 is a timely reminder that I will not be shaken. The stability for which I yearn can be a present reality, not because of my ability to stand firm, but because I am anchored to a solid rock. And that’s something I can count on, something I know for sure, and something guaranteed.
