‏ Psalms 61:2

v. 2: David cries out to God, even though he feels far away. He says, From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I . No matter how distant or alone he feels, David knows he can still pray. He asks God to lead him to a “rock,” a place of safety and strength, which he cannot reach on his own. This rock is a symbol of God’s power and stability, and it ultimately points to Christ (Exodus 33:22 a).
