Preaching a Psalm of Lament
Grief is a reality in this life, even for those who love Christ. One place we see extreme grief illustrated in the Bible is in the psalms of lament. Yet even these writings aid us by helping to order our disordered affections and set them aright. Christopher Ash demonstrates this truth from Psalm 74, where the psalmist’s initial anguish is assuaged by reminding himself of who God is and that He is sovereign over all.
