Psalms 40

We read the Bible sometimes and we are tossed back and forth with grief and relief. We read the words of God and realize just how much we have failed(grief) and then we read the about Gods love and grace(relief) and we marvel at it all.

We may think that our prayers are not being answered but think again. Be patient. God is listening to our cries. Verse 1
We fall into pits or get stuck in problems and God is there to get us out. verse 2
God has a path that is solid. Gods plan is to get us on that path. verse 2
God wants to give joy through purpose and trust. verse 3
Others may not understand it and be critical of you but others will rejoice and praise God because of what He has done. verse 13-16
We must remember to stay humble before God and always recognize where our help really comes from. verse 17
