The psalms repeatedly encourage us to tell the truth of how hard life can be. “How long Lord? Will you utterly forget me? How long must I carry sorrow in my soul, grief in my heart day after day?” (Ps 13:1-3).
Can you bring your deepest sorrow directly to God today? See if, after doing so, your heart can now pivot and be filled with peace.
