517: Do not remain silent | Psalm 109:1

What do we do when God doesn't seem to be listening? When we aren't sure where to turn or what to do, we reach out to God for the next step. We ask for vision and clarity. We ask for deliverance. And all of that is good. He wants us to do that. But have you ever felt that God is being silent? David begins Psalm 109, "My God, whom I praise, do not remain silent." What an amazing prayer. Recently, I felt like God had been silent. Yet, my wife encouraged me and spoke to me. We will still praise God. We will still trust that He is in control. So, make this your prayer: God, do not remain silent. But always remember that small phrase in the middle… whom I praise. Continue to seek God and praise Him, even in the waiting.
