In Psalm 62, David says that his honor (and salvation) depend on God. I doubt that few of us live like our honor comes from God. I would guess that we assume that any honor that we have has been earned by our own hard work. In fact, I would guess that we strive to achieve honor.
David posits a very different attitude. He encourages his own soul to rest in God ALONE! he acknowledges that his hope is in God. His fortress (strength, safety) is God - not Himself. David encourages us to trust in God at all times - to pour our hearts (thoughts, emotions, wills) out to Him. He bases his pleas to us on a reality of life - God is our refuge.
Lord, my honor (and salvation - earthly and spiritually) depends on You.
