Samuel 22:3 (King James Version)
 3The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.
Samuel explores what it is to have faith.  When you falter, you need a bedrock of absolute reassurance which will not fail you in your hour of need:  ‘my high tower, and my refuge’.  This place of absolute integrity – that is what faith is.  ‘The God of my rock’ is the one who will never betray you, never forget you.   When you are hurt, help is on its way: ‘thou savest me from violence’.   You can shelter in the knowledge that ‘he is my shield’ - your sacred talisman of trust.
