“When my soul is in the dumps, I rehearse everything I know of you…” Psalms 42:6a

We all have moments when our souls are in the dumps. There are the moments when the pain seems unbearable. There are the moments when the world seems to be out to get us. There are moments when it feels like everything good has been stripped away and we are left raw. There are moments of injustice that we can’t understand. There are moments of death; death of dreams; death of relationships; physical death. There seem to be many moments that cause our souls to be in the dumps.

In those moments, David, wrote that he rehearses everything he knows of God. That seems like the most foreign idea to our hurting souls. The last thing our pain wants to do is focus on the goodness of God, the character of God, the love of God. Yet that is exactly what David did and exactly what we need to do.

So the next time that your souls is in the dumps trying remembering all that He is and see what it does for your soul.
