- My soul rests in God alone,
- from whom comes my salvation.
- God alone is my rock and salvation,
- my secure height; I shall never fall.
- How long will you set upon people,
- all of you beating them down,
- As though they were a sagging fence or a battered wall?
- Even from my place on high they plot to dislodge me.
- They delight in lies; they bless with their mouths,
- but inwardly they curse. Selah
- My soul, be at rest in God alone, from whom comes my hope.
- God alone is my rock and my salvation,
- my secure height; I shall not fall.
- My safety and glory are with God, my strong rock and refuge.
- Trust God at all times, my people!
- Pour out your hearts to God our refuge! Selah
- Mortals are a mere breath, the powerful but an illusion;
- On a balance they rise; together they are lighter than air.
- Do not trust in extortion; in plunder put no empty hope.
- Though wealth increase, do not set your heart upon it.
- One thing God has said;
- two things I have heard: Power belongs to God
- so too, Lord, does kindness,
- And you render to each of us according to our deeds.
I'm always extra encouraged when my brothers n sisters encourage me using God's words. Not that their own words are ineffective but God's word is alive and active , sharper than any double-edged sword , it is able to fathom what is in our hearts and give us the encouragement that we need. Let us make it a habit to speak God's words to each other !
