Introduction
Today’s psalm is an individual lament expressing a plea for God’s help. It includes a hymn of praise (verses 8-13) and concludes with an affirmation of God’s love and faithfulness.
Scripture Reading

But you, O Lord, are a merciful and loving God, always patient, always kind and faithful.
Reflect
