Psalm 55:16-17
16 But I call upon God,
and the Lord will save me.
17 Evening and morning and at noon
I utter my complaint and moan,
and he will hear my voice.
There is a sureness that the psalmist shares -- the Lord *will* save me; he *will* hear my voice. Is this a mantra that the psalmist repeats to get himself through the day? Is this the prayer before bed? Perhaps a little bit of both. While I'm sure that the Lord appreciates hearing our joys and thanksgivings, in addition to our complaints and moans, the truth is that there are days (weeks? months?) when complaints and moans dominate our conversations with God.
Let us trust that the Lord will hear our voice, and save us.
Peace,
Pastor Jenn
