The Synergy between Biblically Sound Theology and Spanx
Psalm 42 concludes with a restorative proclamation but what I appreciate the most about psalms of lament like this (lament is the formal classification for the “sad” psalms) is that God allowed them to be included in this divine love story we call the Bible in the first place! Instead of disowning disillusioned people, the fifty-nine sad psalms are effectively God’s engraved invitation for us to be real with Him—to be honest when our hearts are heavy, and not wear fake happy faces.
