Psalms 6 and 7 - When We lost God

4 Come back, O Lord.
Rescue me.
Save me because of your mercy!
5 In death, no one remembers you.
In the grave, who praises you?
Psalms 6:4-5 (GW)

9 The Lord has heard my plea for mercy.
The Lord accepts my prayer.
Psalms 6:9 (GW)

10 My shield is God above,
who saves those whose motives are decent.
Psalms 7:10 (GW)

Reflection of B:

In King David's sorrows he felt as if God had left him. He pleaded with God to come back to him, declaring His mercy and protection.

Sometimes we also experience such feeling when God seems far away. Yet we need to learn from King David to ask God to come back to us in His mercy and trust in His unfailing love. We need to know the God we have, that He will protect us from all harms. We may feel that we have lost him like how a child would have felt when playing hide and seek. But in actual fact, God is always there waiting for us to seek Him.


Dear Lord,
Thank You for coming back to me time and again when I felt I have lost you. Thank You that You have kept me through my trials in your mercy. Let me be in Your presence all my life.
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
