When I first started preaching, someone once told me to “Preach to broken hearts, because there’s one on every pew.”
Sometimes, I think we spend too much time focusing on the head and not enough on the heart. In the end, what Christians need to remember — despite everything else — is that God is near to them.
Everything else hinges on holding fast to that idea.

CloseWe know that Jesus is powerful. After all, He raised the dead, gave sight to the blind, and "rebuked" nature. There's no doubt that He can do whatever He wants, any time He wants. But is it possible for Him to calm my soul? Our lives can be full of anxiety, fear, suspicion, danger, and sadness. We call on God to help us, but do we actually believe He can? Or, more specifically, how can we be know if He has? For that, we turn to the Psalms of Lament. These psalms make up nearly 1/3 of the book of Psalms, and they are very relatable when we find ourselves in tough times. They also teach us a lot about our own faith and how it practically intersects with the world around us.
