The Song Within

Psalm 13 (New International Version)
1 How long, O LORD ? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
2 How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and every day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?
3 Look on me and answer, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death;
4 my enemy will say, "I have overcome him," and my foes will rejoice when I fall.
5 But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.
6 I will sing to the LORD, for he has been good to me.

David cried out to God in his distress. He asked God many questions. David's soul was in anguish. But, in the midst of his grief, David still had a song in his heart. And, he chose to sing it. Just like David, God allows us to express our hurts and grievances to Him. God wants to bring healing to those wounded areas. And, in like manner, God wants to hear the song within our heart, knowing that His love is always there.
