We hear David cry out to the Lord, “How long O Lord?” We hear him cry out for the wicked but affirm that God does hear us and knows the wicked. He knows the helpless which means He understands how the wicked have hurt them. On this day I think of Martin Luther King Jr. and the leaders of the Civil Rights Movement. They too cried out like David. How long O Lord must racism do this to us? When will we be free? Martin preached the gospel and trusted in God’s love and anger at the wicked.

7You, O Lord, will keep them;
you will guard us from this generation forever.
8On every side the wicked prowl,
as vileness is exalted among the children of man.Praise God for His protection!

because he has dealt bountifully with me.TRUTH!

I love how real David is with the Lord. He does not try to act perfect or happy and joyful at all times when he’s talking to God. He allows God to see his heart his pain his confusion and dread about this wickedness and darkness in the world. But then he goes back to what God really is and all that God has done all of his blessings his steadfast love and him taking care of us and those who are fatherless or poor or hurting

He already knows what we think yet it’s hard for us at times to put words to them and acknowledge it. But He knows and confessing these to Him won’t change what He feels for you, it’ll draw you closer to Him and you’ll learn to trust Him more.
