Psalms: Experiencing the Truth

The Psalms are written like prayers; in fact that’s what most of them are. They are a window into the experience of people walking with God. The Psalmists are taking their knowledge of the truth and using it in relationship with God. The Psalmists don’t just know the truth, they experience it, and they teach us how to do so also.

Depression ranges from a clinical diagnosis to an unexpected malaise, but all of us living in a fallen world experience it in some way. How can we experience the love of God during it? This Psalm shows us.
