Psalm 13 ESV
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? 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? Consider and answer me, O Lord my God; light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death, lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed over him,” lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken. But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation. I will sing to the Lord, because he has dealt bountifully with me.

Crying Out (v.1-2)

Key Truth 1: Crying out to God isn’t just okay, it’s necessary!

Prayer (v. 3-4)

Key Truth: We need to pray more & worry less, this will lead us to a much better place……HOPE.

Hope (v. 5-6)

Key Truth 3: One of the best ways to find hope is to look at all God has done, all God is doing, & trust He will do it again!

David moved from being depressed and feeling abandoned by God, to singing joy. “The fact that we feel abandoned itself means that we really know God is there. To be abandoned you need somebody to be abandoned by. Because we are Christians and have been taught by God in the Scriptures, we know that God still loves us and will be faithful to us, regardless of our feelings.” (James Boice)
