Psalm 42 | Hope in God, Not in Feelings

Psalm 42 invites us to wrestle honestly with our emotions and to consider how God intends them to function in the life of a believer. As the psalmist acknowledges the depth of what he feels but refuses to be led by it, we learn to hope in God by anchoring our lives in truth rather than in the rise and fall of our feelings.
