‏ Psalms 55:6

v. 6–7: David wishes he could escape: And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! For then would I fly away and be at rest. Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. He longs to flee the chaos of the city and find peace in solitude. Like a dove, he wants to leave the noise and danger behind and rest in a quiet place. This longing for peace reflects the desire of many believers to escape the troubles of the world and find rest in God.
