「I pour out my complaint before Him;

　I declare before Him my trouble.」　Amen.

　Here we are told of a prayer to pour out one's lament and a prayer to express one's suffering. The prayer of lament is a prayer of confession that does not hide but exposes, and the prayer that expresses suffering is a prayer to discern what one needs. Such prayers do not seem to be born in peace. It seems to be born in the prayers that we cry out to God when we are in a crisis situation.　May we pray today as we cry out to the Lord.

God bless you.   See you next week.
