The Psalms

My Bible reading schedule has me in the Psalms. Overall impression this time around (not the first time I've read them): Many, many of them start out in despair, or anger, or fear -- but they always end in hope (in God), faith (in God), and praise (to God).

No matter the situation, no matter the outcome (good or bad), a child of God can always hope, have faith, and give praise to God Almighty.

Sometimes (too often) I forget this vital truth. And if David could do it (and his problems were much bigger than mine have ever been), surely I can do it.
