Psalms...

"The LORD is close to the brokenhearted; he rescues those who are crushed in spirit."
Psalm 34:18


I find myself drawn again and again to the Psalms. The voices of the faithful, bringing their praises, thanks, hurts and grief honestly and openly before God really speaks to me right now. They are a cry to God from distress, pain or sorrow. In the midst of their pain, they can still affirm their faith in God. I'm so struggling with fear and anxiety right now. 4 more days of waiting until the biopsies.

One of my favorites, though not a psalm: This light affliction which is only for a moment is working within me a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory. 2 Cor. 4:17
