Lament

We underestimate the value of lament. Going to God and pouring out your heart about the difficulties facing you can be very comforting and can bring healing. A whole book about it exists in the bible. How often have you heard a sermon from Lamentations? I have added Lamentations 3:28-29 to my email signature because it has been so helpful for me:

'When life is heavy and hard to take, go off by yourself. Enter the silence. Bow in prayer. Don't ask questions: Wait for hope to appear.' (MSG)
