Psalm 102

Psalm 102

How many times when I have been so far from God that I was crying out for him not to hide His face from me? We know in our minds that He is always there but our minds are disconnected from out hearts. We don’t “feel” God there. What does the Psalm show as the solution to this problem? He starts to remind himself of the truth about God’s faithfulness and sovereignty.
His faithfulness (verses 13, 16, 20) and his sovereignty (verses 12, 18-20, 25-28) are nuggets of tasty truth that nourish our souls in times of “spiritual drought”.
I want to be in full force faith all my life and I never again want to be in the low times of my life. I know that God used them to make me more like His Son. Since I am not completed or obtained it yet, those times are sure to come again. I ask the Lord to renew His strength in me again. Daily. Hourly. Moment by moment.
