Teacher: Aly Wilson 

Text: Psalm 13 

Pastor Aly Wilson reflects on Psalm 13, highlighting the reality of unavoidable pain and the human instinct to avoid it. She emphasizes that lament, as demonstrated by David, is a vital spiritual practice allowing us to bring our deepest sorrows before God, who is intimately concerned with our pain. Despite the discomfort of lament, it opens a path to divine comfort and renewal, revealing that God is present and caring, even in our darkest moments. Following the teaching, there is a guided practice of lament which begins at minute 26:00.
