Ever Feel Like This?

Psalms 13:1-6 ESV
(1) To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
(2) How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?
(3) Consider and answer me, O LORD my God; light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death,
(4) lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed over him," lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken.
(5) But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.
(6) I will sing to the LORD, because he has dealt bountifully with me.

Verse 2 really hits home for me. It seems that there is a connection between sorrow in the heart and taking counsel in the soul. Verse 3 is the prayer that seems targeted at the heart of God. He asks that Yahweh would answer him.

Isn't it exciting that God answers us through His Word? We really do have the answers we need. We just have to read them.

I need to remember the promises of verse 5 and 6. How about you?
