Psalm 62

Over the past few months, we, as a church, have been anxious to find a meeting place for us. Although, we prayed, God seemed to be silent. I believe that is one of the hardest things for a Christian to experience is the silence of God. We know He is there. We know He loves us and cares for us, and we know that His sovereign will cannot be thwarted. Yet when God does not move by our timetable, doubt and anxiety seem to creep into our thinking. I have to be honest to say that I would tell anyone that would listen that God will provide, but inside, I couldn't help but wonder if He really would, after such a long season of silence.

It was during this time of silence that God would refresh my faith over and over again through the Psalms. In particular, Psalm 46 and 62. What I love about Psalm 62 is how David ends the psalm by saying that there are basically 2 things that we can be sure of about God: He is powerful, and He is loving.

As a child that wrestled with His Father's will, it was these words of Scripture that fed my soul and helped propel me to a deeper faith that I will forever remember.

"Thank you Jesus for teaching us faith"
