PSALM 62 Pursue God

Psalm 62 verse 11 in the TLV
Do not trust in extortion, and do not put vein hope in plunder,
Even though these things increase riches, 
do not set them on your heart.

Glen D. Black comments:
People may pursue the plunder of this world,
but only the Lord will reward man
with mercy and righteousness.

Psalm 62:12 (v13 in the TLV)
For you reward a man according to his work.

A person's work shows whether his faith is real or counterfeit.
The true attitude of a believer cannot be at variance with God's truth
expressed in Psalm 62, in which the psalmist is everyman/everywoman
who is open to encounter with God....
aware of his weaknesses, aware of his own need
but with great hope putting his confidence in God his rock.
When you really lack confidence in your own ability, give God a chance.
When you can't see any way through, put your trust in Him.
Trust in Him at all times, you people
Pour out your heart in His presence.  Psalm 62:8 TLV.
