I lost my grandmother to #covid_19 in 2020. She gave me this Bible in 1996 for my high school graduation, along with a beautiful matching bookmark that she signed for me. I recently pulled it out and I’m rediscovering the beauty of the language of of the #KJV version. I couldn’t appreciate it when I was younger, but I do now. #bible #psalms #psalm13 #morningdevotion #prayer #cc #classicalconversations #classicalhomeschooling #kjvbible https://www.instagram.com/p/COSqxdPlJGU/?igshid=8pom816wemt2

Day 139. . "This psalm is the deserted soul’s case and cure. Whether it was penned upon any particular occasion does not appear, but in general, I. David sadly complains that God had long withdrawn from him and delayed to relieve him. He thought God had forgotten him, had forgotten his promises to him, his covenant with him, his former lovingkindness which he had shown him and which he took to be an earnest of further mercy, had forgotten that there was such a man in the world, who needed and expected relief and succour from him. . Thus Zion said, My God has forgotten me (Isa. 49:14 ), Israel said, My way is hidden from the Lord, Isa. 40:27 . . Not that any good man can doubt the omniscience, goodness, and faithfulness of God; but it is a peevish expression of prevailing fear, which yet, when it arises from a high esteem and earnest desire of God’s favour, though it be indecent and culpable, shall be passed by and pardoned, for the second thought will retract it and repent of it. God hid his face from him, so that he wanted that inward comfort in God which he used to have, and herein was a type of Christ upon the cross, crying out, My God, why hast thou forsaken me? . God sometimes hides his face from his own children, and leaves them in the dark concerning their interest in him; and this they lay to heart more than any outward trouble whatsoever." -Matthew Henry #psalm13 https://www.instagram.com/p/B2-u4ugjTzk/?igshid=y4eusq6bx2nz

Day 140. . "He was racked with care, which filled his head: I take counsel in my soul; "I am at a loss, and am inops consilii —without a friend to advise with that I can put any confidence in, and therefore am myself continually projecting what to do to help myself; but none of my projects are likely to take effect, so that I am at my wits’ end, and in a continual agitation.’’ Anxious cares are heavy burdens with which good people often load themselves more than they need. . . [2.] He was overwhelmed with sorrow, which filled his heart: I have sorrow in my heart daily. He had a constant disposition to sorrow and it preyed upon his spirits, not only in the night, when he was silent and solitary, but by day too, when lighter griefs are diverted and dissipated by conversation and business; nay, every day brought with it fresh occasions of grief; the clouds returned after the rain. The bread of sorrow is sometimes the saint’s daily bread. Our Master himself was a man of sorrows. . . 2. How he expostulates with God hereupon: "How long shall it be thus?’’ And, "Shall it be thus for ever?’’ Long afflictions try our patience and often tire it. It is a common temptation, when trouble lasts long, to think it will last always; despondency then turns into despair, and those that have long been without joy begin, at last, to be without hope. . "Lord, tell me how long thou wilt hide thy face, and assure me that it shall not be for ever, but that thou wilt return at length in mercy to me, and then I shall the more easily bear my present troubles.’’ -- Matthew Henry #psalm13 https://www.instagram.com/p/B2-vNRZj2lL/?igshid=1aqtwla71nn0i

Day 141. . "Long afflictions try our patience and often tire it. It is a common temptation, when trouble lasts long, to think it will last always; despondency then turns into despair, and those that have long been without joy begin, at last, to be without hope. . "Lord, tell me how long thou wilt hide thy face, and assure me that it shall not be for ever, but that thou wilt return at length in mercy to me, and then I shall the more easily bear my present troubles.’’ . . His complaints stir up his prayers, v. 3, v. 4. We should never allow ourselves to make any complaints but what are fit to be offered up to God and what drive us to our knees. " #psalm13 https://www.instagram.com/p/B2-vhOrDQFs/?igshid=138mll4hp4jb2
