Prayer and Our Restlessness

Psalm 62 Trust in God Alone For the choir director: according to Jeduthun. A psalm of David. 1 I am at rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him. 2 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I will never be shaken. 3 How long will you threaten a man? Will all of you attack[a] as if he were a leaning wall or a tottering fence? 4 They only plan to bring him down from his high position. They take pleasure in lying; they bless with their mouths, but they curse inwardly.Selah 5 Rest in God alone, my soul, for my hope comes from him. 6 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I will not be shaken. 7 My salvation and glory depend on God, my strong rock. My refuge is in God. 8 Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts before him. God is our refuge.Selah 9 Common people are only a vapor; important people, an illusion. Together on a scale, they weigh less than[b] a vapor. 10 Place no trust in oppression, or false hope in robbery. If wealth increases, don’t set your heart on it. 11 God has spoken once; I have heard this twice: strength belongs to God, 12 and faithful love belongs to you, Lord. For you repay each according to his works
