"From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock [that] is higher than I." (Psalm 61:2)
At times like these when I feel somewhat overwhelmed, it helps to just focus on God, my Rock. This Psalm 61:2 verse is so appropriate, for the "end of the earth" indicates the limit or boundary that's far from what I am accustomed to; "overwhelmed" is to feel covered or enveloped by darkness or calamity; and the "rock" is a place of refuge.
It is a reassuring reminder that God, my Rock, is higher than all that is here on Earth. He is Sovereign and Almighty. So, I trust that He will be my strength through all that is weighing me down, all that is stretching me in so many different directions, and all that is keeping me busy. He is my strong foundation, and I know that I can lean on Him.
