Today, it was my time to read Psalm 88. In the opening remarks it indicates this a ‘Suffering of Affliction.’ The first time this Psalm really stood out to me, was a day during the second week of recovery from my sixth chemo treatment. That morning my fever of several days had finally broken and there was hope I was going to come through. But I was exhausted. I knew all I would be able to do that morning was read the day’s Bible passages. I was anticipating I would be uplifted.
However, it was Psalm 88, and I was devastated. It spoke to how I was feeling with out pointing to hope. It was a time when I did feel like darkness was my only friend.
For many reasons, as I read it this morning, I found myself feeling the despair I felt that morning. The subtitle of “Suffering of Affliction” really stood out. It made me think of the beautiful irises that are now dying.
Is there a Bible passage that leads you more in despair than in hope?
