For 9 long years, Saul hounded David as one hunts a partridge in the mountains (1 Sam. 26:20). How long, O Lord? Will You forget me forever? David prayed. How long will You hide Your face from me? . . . How long will my enemy be exalted over me? (Ps. 13:1-2).
Prolonged affliction often vexes us as well. We want a sudden solution, a quick fix. But some things cant be fixed. They can only be borne.
But we can complain to God in our troubles. We have a heavenly Father who wants us to engage with Him in our struggles. He understands His children as no one else can.
When we turn to Him with our complaints, we come to our senses. In Davids case, his thoughts went back to lifes certainty: Gods love. David reminded himself: I have trusted in Your mercy; my heart shall rejoice in Your salvation. I will sing to the Lord, because He has dealt bountifully with me (vv.5-6). Sufferings may persist, but David could sing in the midst of his trials, for he was Gods beloved child. Thats all he needed to know.
A. W. Thorold writes, The highest pinnacle of the spiritual life is not happy joy in unbroken sunshine, but absolute and undoubting trust in the love of God.
Even in our troubles, Gods love can be trusted.
Read: Psalm 13
