God Helps the Helpless

Discouragement can show itself in many different forms, such as depression, frustration, and even despair. Most of the time, we let the feelings that are associated with those kinds of experiences hide the character of God from our eyes so that all we see is the struggle. In Psalm 42, God provides the cure for discouragement through the inspired pen and meditation of His servant David—who himself was a man familiar with discouragement. In this psalm, we find the truth we need to be able to see through the struggles to the character of God who sustains us and works in us through our struggles.
