A prayer for help when feeling despondent. Heman is a man identified in 1 Kings 4:31 as a gifted wise man and in 1 Chronicles 15:16-19 as one of the musically gifted Levites who ministered in worship during the time of David.
Even amid despair, Heman confesses his faith in God's saving goodness. Heman's life had not been an easy one and now it had grown even more difficult, and he felt that death was very near.
But he did not give up! He still trusted in God, whom he addressed as "LORD" — Jehovah four times in this prayer.
Remember God will never leave you nor forsake you. Trust Him.
Blessings,
Presiding Elder Barbara Hayes
