| The Silent Soul Waits For God Alone |

For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him come my salvation. He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken. (Psalm 62:1, 2) George Muller comments on this passage: “The natural mind is ever prone to reason when we ought to believe. To be at work when we ought to be quiet. To go our way when we ought steadily to walk in God’s ways. And what happens when we anticipate God by going our own way? We bring, in many instances, guilt on our conscience, and if not that, we certainly weaken faith instead of increasing it. Each time we work a deliverance of our own, we find it more difficult to trust in God, until at last we give way entirely to our natural fallen reason and unbelief prevails. How different if one is enabled to wait for God’s time and to look alone to Him for help and deliverance! When at last help comes, after many seasons of prayer and much exercise of faith and patience, how sweet it is. What a present reward the soul immediately receives for trusting God and waiting patiently for His deliverance. Dear Christian reader, if you have never walked in this path of obedience, do so now, and you will know personally the sweetness of the joy that results from it.” Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. (Psalm 62:8)
