MOOD SWINGS

Today's reading: Psalm 21-23

While I cannot pick out a single verse from these three chapters, I have noticed David's mood as he walks us through his three songs...

Psalm 21 are celebratory words written by David after huge victories.

Psalm 22 was penned as David sat in great despair-unloved and rejected.

Psalm 23 was David's reminder of God's care and compassion for us as His lambs.

Celebration. Defeat. Hope.

Mood swings we all experience and endure.

But where David might differ from us...he kept talking to the Lord.

He held no emotion, thought or fear back.

He spoke to God through each and every season of his life--and believed God heard him.

What a lesson for us!

Happy? Talk to God.

Sad? Talk to God.

Mad? Talk to God.

Uncaring? Talk to God.
