Today, we are on psalm 31 and in it, David is extremely vulnerable about his feelings at the time. In verses 9 and 10 he says, “Be merciful to me, Lord, for I am in distress; my eyes grow weak with sorrow, my soul...
Today, we are on psalm 29 and this one was really humbling for me. I would encourage you to follow the link and check it out. I hate to admit it, but a lot of times I conjure up a god in...
