“P. T. Forsyth wrote: The depth is simply the height inverted, as sin is the index of moral grandeur. The cry is not only truly human, but divine as well. God is deeper than the deepest depth in man. He is holier than our deepest sin is deep. There is no depth so deep to us as when God reveals his holiness in dealing with our sin . . . . [And so] think more of the depth of God than the depth of your cry. The worst thing that can happen to a man is to have no God to cry to out of the depth.”

“To really know God, you have to wrestle through pain, struggle with honest doubts, and even live with unanswered questions. So while I won’t promise you that God is your copilot or that the Bible says it and that settles it, I will promise you this: if you wrestle with him, seek him, cling to him, God will meet you in your pain.”

“A place of worship is a place for listening—listening to God speak. But it is also a place for answering, responding to what is spoken. God’s words initiate a conversation. We come together as a congregation in worship to speak “through prayer and praise” with the God who speaks with us.”

“David asked God to shine his searchlight on his soul. David willingly submitted to the gaze of God and desired the divine scrutiny. He even asked to be put on trial. David did not do this arrogantly, daring God to find anything wrong. On the contrary, David knew that God would find wicked ways in his heart, and he wanted to be made clean. David wanted to be purified not only from conscious sins but from secret faults as well. He welcomed the gaze of God because he had experienced it before and knew that it brought healing.”
