Psalm 39: The Emptiness of Life without God's Forgiveness

2 years ago

To help you hear the prayerfulness of the Psalms, here is a Monday Morning Psalm just for you.

Can I just say that I find this psalm to be most interesting, most interesting indeed? Ever think it best not to say anything about something only to have the matter consume your attention, to burn within so to speak? When it moves to the forefront of your mind and will not let you go? Well, in this psalm David starts out by telling us about one such of his experiences. He begins by saying that he was determined to keep his mouth shut. He was going to take the high road and wasn’t going to be guilty of spouting off at the mouth when he shouldn’t be. And he was successful at doing this for a little while, but it didn’t do him much good at all; for this caused him great pain and he began to burn from the need to speak about it. In short, he was finding life empty and meaningless while the only source of meaningfulness was God.

This is an original presentation of Psalm 39, as heard in our podcast. The title comes from our podcast, where we chat about this aspect of this psalm. Here we simply hear the psalm. I hope you find it to be a blessing.
