Psalm 62 “My Soul Waits for God Alone”

The Middle of the Night
I’ve been waking up around 3:00AM-4:00AM in a sweat almost every day these last couple weeks. Mind and heart racing. Lists growing, deadlines approaching. Fear. Panic. What ifs. Worry. Stress.
Then I pray and eventually come to repentance when I remember all this worry and fear is not Godly. It is me selfishly trying to control things.
Regardless of any earthly, human outcome, God has it. He holds you and me in his hand. He is a refuge.
Trust in him at all times, O people;
pour out your heart before him;
God is a refuge for us. (Psalm 64:8)
