God hears lament

Psalm 13 gives words to someone who feels forgotten. Its repeated questions become a request for God to answer, then a confession of trust in His steadfast love. You do not need polished language to pray. Bring the ache itself and keep turning toward the Lord.

Put the Word into practice

Put your pain into a brief honest prayer and share the burden with a trustworthy person if needed.
