Psalm 88

This psalm justs reminds me that you are never too low to pray. Sometimes, when things just don't go right, we turn away from God. We are so consumed by our problems that we leave God out. But He wants us to talk to Him about our problems. The psalmist did not praise God once in his prayer. He just wanted answers. " O Lord, why do You reject my soul? Why do You hide Your face from me?" He was so low that He felt He couldn't find God anymore. But he still cried out to Him. Even when we can't see Him, God is always there. Even if our prayers aren't praises, He wants us to pray. To talk to Him about what's going on and what we are feeling. Even if it's only asking for answers and explanations. God, help me to always turn to You. To pray even when I just don't feel like it. Help me to remember that You are always there, and that You never leave me no matter how low I get.
