Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation[c] 6 and my God. Psalm 42: 5

Evening Meditation 3-3-17
My tears have been my food
day and night,
while they say to me all the day long,
“Where is your God?”
4 These things I remember,
as I pour out my soul:
how I would go with the throng
and lead them in procession to the house of God
with glad shouts and songs of praise,
a multitude keeping festival. Psalm 42:3,4

while my enemies continually taunt me, saying,
“Where is this God of yours?”

All who hate me whisper about me,
imagining the worst.

“He will never get out of that bed!”

the one who shared my food, has turned against me.

Make me well again, so I can pay them back!

for you have not let my enemies triumph over me.
