Psalm 62

While it seems the impact of humans weighs far too heavy on this earth, the psalmist tells us that those of "low estate are but a breath, those of high estate are a delusion: in the balances they go up; they are lighter than a breath."  Let us  embrace our insignificance, and work for good, not for fear of judgement, but so love can reign. 

   

"For God alone my soul waits in silence; 

for my hope is from God. 

God alone is my rock 

and my salvation, 

my fortress; 

I shall not be shaken.  

  

Once God has spoken:

twice have I heard this: 

 

that power belongs to God, 

and steadfast love belongs to you, 

O Lord.  

  

For you repay to all 

according to their work." 

  

Psalm 62:1-2, 11-12 NRSV
