Psalm 62

Psalm 62 
Revised Standard Version (RSV) 

******************

  God alone.
  I think most of us intend to worship God alone.  The problem is that other things distract us, and before long our hearts are rushing off to another God.
  Think about it like this.  Have you ever gone into the grocery store focused on buying one thing, and then, the next thing you know, you're looking at 20 items on the checkout belt, wondering how they all got there?  Plans and intentions are great, but we so easily find other things alluring enough to give ourselves over to them.
  So how do we guard ourselves to ensure that we're focused on God alone?
  It's a daily discipline of coming back to Christ, coming back to the one who gives us life, and recognizing that worshiping anything else is folly.  It's a willingness to examine your own life impartially, and to let yourself be challenged to make sure your roots are sinking deep into the water of life.  It's a lifelong process to let God alone be our rock and salvation, but it's worth the investment, worth the work, worth the discipline, because God alone leads to abundant and eternal life.

May you take the next step in discipleship, whatever that may be
