Little kids love to hide. Unfortunately, many of them are not
very good at it. Maybe that’s a good thing! They think if they hide
their face or close their eyes, no one can see them. If you’re playing
hide and seek with a little one, you may have to pretend you don’t see
their legs sticking out from under the bed or whatever hiding place
they’ve chosen. Generally, it is pretty easy to find them. But
sometimes, we feel like God is hiding from us and we can’t seem to find
Him. David wrote a song about a moment like this. In this case, wicked
folks were acting like God would never call them into account, and
David was wondering where God was as they boasted and planned their
selfish lives. But David turns His complaint into a prayer of faith. And
we can take His example when it seems like God is hiding from us!
