A place for lament
Read · Psalm 13
Read the passage in its whole chapter and notice its setting.
Open the chapterReflect
The psalm begins with a painful question: how long? Biblical prayer includes grief and protest, not only confident praise. Its movement toward trust does not require you to hurry your own sorrow.
A question to sit with
What grief needs acknowledgement today?
Pray
God, this hurts. Help me be honest with You and receive care from those around me. Amen.
Carry it into the day
Name the loss gently; consider sharing it with someone safe.
