I am at rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him. Psalm 62:1

I am at rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him.
-Psalm 62:1

We can be content and in need of God.

There is a place, position, or posture that we are in where we are ready, willing, and desiring to see God work and respond to that.

Silently wait for God to act on your behalf

To rest in God alone means to wait, to be subject, to watch and follow, to be quiet.

“Bear and forbear, and silent be, tell to no man thy misery; yield not in trouble to dismay, God can deliver any day.”
-Luther

The one who talks too much of their troubles to people forgets God.

Silent conversation with God alleviates the need for sympathy from people.

Complaining, gossiping about yourself, and thinking your way out increases unbelief and magnifies troubles.

To confide in God alone, and wait for him, and finally be delivered is a sweet joy, incomparable.
