Psalms

Psalm 4:1 reads: “Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have relieved me in my distress; Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.” David, the man after God’s own heart, had such a poetic way of weaving his deep heart cries into songs that would eventually come to be recognized as the Psalms we read in Scripture. Throughout church history, God’s people have turned to Psalms like this one in times of prayer because of their heartfelt emotion and relatability. Let me encourage you to read through a few Psalms this week. Let the words on the page become your own prayers. Surely, the same God who drew near to David will draw near to you. Now that’s something to pray about!
