For Monday Psalms, November 15, 2021
Book 1 of the Psalms(Psalms 3-41) reveals our human condition of limitation and our struggle to trust the steadfast love and power of the LORD. It is dominated by Psalms “of David” in which the psalmist is constantly beset by problems, difficulties, trials—most often at the hands of others who are determined to make life difficult for him, though sometimes he makes his own trouble. (Psalms 32 and 38 are penitential.)
