Psalm 55. When we are praying, we are inviting God's attention to us. Prayer is built upon a relationship. God waits for our requestto be attentive to what is going on in our lives. Prayer is based on obedience. Just as David was betrayed by his own son/family, Jesus was betrayed by one of His twelve disciples in a personal way. When we encounter this level of wickedness and betrayal, we know it will not destroy us if we have Christ but it is still painful. It is okay to expel our pain to God loudly. We can express the pain of frustration without intending to give up since we decide to never stop serving the Lord. If we know pain is coming, we can brace ourselves to endure it. We should not abandon God to avoid pain. Christ was immovable in His pain because He trusted in the Father.
