Psalm 6: a Psalm of Lament - Part 4: A Profession of Trust

I like to think of hope as a three-way dance with trusting and waiting. Paul says, "If in this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied" (1 Corinthians 15:19). We do have hope in this life, but not only in this life. We have an eternal hope secured and founded upon the steadfast love of God in Jesus. We do not live without hope. It grows out of trust. It will never disappoint. In this psalm of lament we turn to God in trust, hope, and love.
