Listen to Psalm 13. This dirge opens with, How long will you forget me, Lord? Forever? With similar moans in the next few verses, the ancient blues singer continues his sob story. Then, just when we know where he is heading, he suddenly slams his song into reverse and declares, I will sing unto the Lord, for he has dealt bountifully with me. The tail end of that little psalm looks as out of place as a fan of peacock feathers on the end of a pig. Yet no matter how odd it seems, psalm after psalm confirms that we can mingle praise with our pain. These inspired prayers prove that our Lord wants us to vent on him our grief and frustration. He wants honesty, not denial, and still he wants our praise. Taken from Boost Your Prayer Life Share this! May be freely copied. Just include this notice: © Grantley Morris, www.net-burst.com
