VerseD: Psalm 42:9
I will say to God, my rock,
Psalm 42:9, HCSB
“Why have You forgotten me?
Why must I go about in sorrow
because of the enemy’s oppression?”
It can feel like God is distant, especially when life is difficult and people mock our faith, but we know that He is always with us by the Holy Spirit and understands mocking and suffering. We can rest in His faithfulness.
VerseD: Psalm 42:8
The Lord will send His faithful love by day;
Psalm 42:8, HCSB
His song will be with me in the night—
a prayer to the God of my life.
God should be our greatest desire, and we can rest in His love and grace, seeking Him through prayer and praise by day and by night, even in our bed in the middle of the night and surrounded by fellow believers in church.
VerseD: Psalm 42:6
I am deeply depressed;
Psalm 42:6, HCSB
therefore I remember You from the land of Jordan
and the peaks of Hermon, from Mount Mizar.
God should be our greatest desire, and when life gets in the way we should cry out to God from the places of safety, like Church, and in the midst of trials, just like David did when running from his son who tried to steal the throne.
VerseD: Psalm 42:5
Why am I so depressed?
Psalm 42:5, HCSB
Why this turmoil within me?
Put your hope in God, for I will still praise Him,
my Savior and my God.
God should be our greatest desire, and sometimes we focus on something else or He is calling us to think of others with His love and will by allowing sadness, depression, and anxiety. Prayer and praise to our Savior will restore our desire.

Do we truly love the Lord our God with all our hearts, souls, minds, and strengths? Maybe I can help with the mind part, at least! This is Daniel M. Klem, apparent poet, reluctant yet passionate Disciple (Peter?), and foolish man attempting to understand theology!
