How long, Lord God Almighty, will your anger smolder against the prayers of your people? You have fed them with the bread of tears; you have made them drink tears by the bowlful. You have made us an object of derision to our neighbors, and our enemies mock us.
Psalm 80:4-6//
Besides songs of praise, Psalm has another theme: complaining about how God treats His people. When I complain about God perceived abandonment, I need to remember that praise always comes next because He is always good and righteous in His ways, even if we do not understand them.
