“When he heard his father call out for Abel and he saw his borther go forth, it made him feel like he was nothing. He couldn’t even say that he felt like Cain anymore. One could not feel like Cain because it had no flavor. Cain was the absence of flavor. Cain was like saliva or a Wednesday.”

“The Bible assumes that we do not know instinctively how to talk with God but rather need some help with knowing how to do so. The Psalter is the Bible’s book of praise and prayer to provide the answer to those questions and meet that need. It is given to us so that we can “adapt and adjust our minds and feelings so that they are in accord with the sense of the psalms.”Eugene Peterson thus comments that the Psalms are where Christians have always learned to pray—till our age!”
