Psalm 44: God's Children in ? Yell Out in Faith, Hope after Temple - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. Ben Maton, pastor of Immanuel Lutheran Church in Charlottesville, Virginia, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Psalm 44.

“Awake! Why are you sleeping, O Lord?” The Korahites were devastated when Babylon destroyed the Temple and carried off the holy things they were sworn to protect. Why would God let this happen? “We have not forgotten you!” It didn’t seem fair. As our true Father through Jesus ?, God mercifully invites us to speak our hearts as in Psalm 44. Faith takes its complaints to God, because it knows He’s the only solution. Faith yells out for God, because it knows He always listens. When we struggle to put God’s goodness or our own sin into words, instead of waiting until we feel more pious, we must double down on the Word of God and prayer—God is patient, and the Spirit intercedes.
