Psalm 13 is labeled as a “LAMENT” in the Bible…
Ever feel this way…
“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 day long? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me? Consider and answer me, O Lord my God! light up my eyes!” …
But the Psalm does NOT end like it started!
“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!”
My prayer… May your cry, like that of psalmist in the first part of this psalm, reach the ears of a compassionate and loving God! And may your testimony end like the end of this psalm because of His steadfast love and salvation!
