“Hear my cry, O God; Attend to my prayer. From the end of the earth, I will cry to You,
When my heart is overwhelmed; Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.” Psalms 61:1-2, this is
my life verse. I try to share it and its story with anyone who will listen. I haven’t had the
opportunity to discuss my faith with a nonbeliever. However, I can think of a few ways to
approach the discussion. I would first share my life verse and its story, followed by the criteria of
embarrassment, and end with non-biblical accounts that support Jesus’s existence.
A life verse is a scripture that you feel represents your life, a verse that gives you
encouragement and hope for the future. Most life verses are often found in the mists of chaos.
When I found Psalms 61, I struggle with major anxiety disorder and depression. I was at a
women's retreat with my church. Women surrounded me I didn't know. I left so alone. The
speaker encouraged us to find our life verse after sharing hers and the story behind it. I went
down but the lake nearby and sat quietly reading. I flipped to a random psalm and started there.
