Where do you run when life feels unstable?

Psalm 71 gives us a picture of someone facing affliction, accusation, aging, weakness, and uncertainty. The psalmist asks God to be a “rock of refuge” to which he can continually come. In other words, he asks God to be his home.

This message explores how we often build homes for our anxious hearts through control, success, family stability, reputation, finances, or the dream of a life that cannot be shaken. But when affliction and accusation come, those homes cannot hold.

The good news of Psalm 71 is not that Christianity promises an easy or stable life. It does not. The promise is that when life is not steady, someone is holding you. Jesus became the ultimate homeless exile, took the affliction and accusation our sin deserved, and opened the way for us to come home to God.

In this sermon, we explore what it means to run to God as our refuge, to trust His righteousness, to hope in Christ, and to praise Him even in the middle of hardship.
