Psalm Challenge: Day Sixty-Two!

When I was a little girl, I use to think how can God be your rock. It was not until I went through a very scary time in my life that I realized the meaning of God being my rock. I was starting high school and my mom was diagnosed with colon cancer. I found out a few important facts about God during this hard time. 

-God is ALWAYS here to listen to all my my worries, dreams, hurts, and joy. 

-God is loving. He gave me hugs to make it through days of school where I felt invisible, days of crying and pain flowing throughout my body.

-God is so strong. God took all my cares and worries off my shoulders and carried it for me. 

God is my rock!!!! How is God your rock? I would love to here your experience of where God showed you that He is the almighty rock.

Psalm 62
"Truly my soul finds rest in God;
    my salvation comes from him.
2 Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
    he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.
3 How long will you assault me?
    Would all of you throw me down—
    this leaning wall, this tottering fence?
4 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.
5 Yes, my soul, find rest in God;
    my hope comes from him.
6 Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
    he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
7 My salvation and my honor depend on God;
    he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
8 Trust in him at all times, you people;
    pour out your hearts to him,
    for God is our refuge.
9 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.
10 Do not trust in extortion
    or put vain hope in stolen goods;
though your riches increase,
    do not set your heart on them.
11 One thing God has spoken,
    two things I have heard:'Power belongs to you, God,
12     and with you, Lord, is unfailing love';
and, 'You reward everyone
    according to what they have done.'"
