Psalm 27 & 28
The Psalmist never tries to hide that he has problems. Whether the problem is with evil men (27:2) or with a silent God (28:1), the Psalmist just lays the problem out before God. Yet no matter the problem, by the end of the chapter he is expressing confidence in the Lord to be with him, (27:13-14 & 28:8-9).
What he models for us is a healthy way to pray. A style of prayer that acknowledges the struggles and difficulties of life. A style of prayer that with confidence invites God into the midst of our problems. A style of prayer that we are to follow.
