Psalm 13: The Song of Questions

The Woven Psalms

“How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever?” (Psalm 13:1)
The Psalms ask God questions – hard questions, big questions, questions that we might think God would be offended to hear. The psalmists are unafraid to be utterly, brutally honest with God because he welcomes us and hears us. Ironically, expressing this kind of raw emotion to God leads us to greater trust and safety in his steadfast love.
The Woven Psalms is a reflective, unhurried, and practical podcast about praying every psalm in the Bible. This podcast is a ministry of Rock Hill Community Church in Duluth, MN. You can learn more about our work at www.wovenpsalms.com.
