A Lament

I couldn't say it any better than this:

Psalm 13

1 How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever?

How long will you hide your face from me?

2 How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and every day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?

3 Look on me and answer, O Lord my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death;

4 my enemy will say, "I have overcome him," and my foes will rejoice when I fall.

5 But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.

6 I will sing to the Lord, for he has been good to me.

That little word "but" is so pivotal. I feel like I'm alone and that the sorrow will never end, BUT this I know for sure about God is that He is good.
