Scott Cormode encourages us in times of discouragement to turn to the Psalms, where we can learn how to talk with God in prayers of lament, which can in turn lead to praise and rejoicing once more.
"The amazing thing about humans is that we can feel two things at once. I can be sad that a friend has died and relieved that his suffering is finally over. And I can be tired but still happy. This article is about how weary workers can be tired but still rejoice, and how the Christian practice of lament ties us back to the God who loves us and who, although we lose sight of him, will never abandon us."
