In this guided Scripture meditation on Psalm 56:8–11, you’ll be invited to rest in the truth that God sees your sorrow, hears your cries, and is on your side.

Life doesn’t always feel that way—especially when we’re walking through grief, longing, or fear. But Psalm 56 reminds us that every tear you cry is noticed, collected, and remembered by the God who loves you.

And not only does He see you—He is with you.

Through the practice of Lectio Divina, we’ll reflect on this short but powerful Psalm of trust, written by David in the middle of deep distress. You’ll be guided to:

• Reflect on what sorrow or unmet longing you’re holding today
• Remember that God has not forgotten you—He holds your tears and your future
• Rest in the truth that you are fully known and fully loved

This is a quiet space to be honest with God—and let Him gently meet you in it.

Today’s Meditation Passage:
Psalm 56:8–11, NLT

8 You keep track of all my sorrows.
You have collected all my tears in your bottle.
You have recorded each one in your book.
9 My enemies will retreat when I call to you for help.
This I know: God is on my side!
10 I praise God for what he has promised;
Yes, I praise the LORD for what he has promised.
11 I trust in God, so why should I be afraid?
What can mere mortals do to me?
