How long, LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and day after day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me? I will sing the LORD’s praise,
for he has been good to me. Psalms 13:1,2 & 6
Charles Spurgeon writes about Psalm 13, "What a climb there is, in this Psalm, from the abyss of sorrow up to the summit of joy! "I will sing unto the Lord because He has dealt bountifully with me." I hope many of us know what this blessed change means. If any of you are in great sorrow, tonight, may my Lord and Master lighten your eyes!"
David often starts his Psalms in a very down mood, but then he remembers who God is and he shifts his perspective. We can all be caught in a moment of feeling down, but it's the relationship we have with the Lord that reminds us to look up.
