Hope In God: A Cure For The Downcast Soul

from Understand the Bible? Pastor Melissa Scott, Ph.D. · host Pastor Melissa Scott, Ph.D.

This is a Mother's Day message lifting up those who might not have been in a celebratory mood.  The downcast soul of Psalms 42 & 43 is addressed.  The causes include absence from God's presence, the self and outside forces as enemies, memories of a better day, being overwhelmed by life, and feeling forgotten by God.  The cure is to "Put Hope! in God for yet will I praise Him!"
