Psalm 130:1
“Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Lord.”
KJV
Read in Psalm 130Meaning
Verse 1 gives suffering a voice rather than explaining it away. The depths are a poetic location of profound need from which the speaker still turns toward God.
Read carefully
Read Psalm 130:1 inside its literary unit and the whole of Psalm 130; the verse does not support that overclaim.
Reflection
Bring anguish into honest prayer instead of treating spiritual composure as a prerequisite for approaching God.
