Description
How do we keep praying when sorrow lingers? Whether you are burdened by suffering, disappointment, temptation, loss, or another form of affliction, God invites you to bring your anguish to him through biblical lament. Across thirty-one readings rooted in the Psalms, Lament helps readers see the gospel in Israel's songs of sorrow, equipping them to cry out in faith, savor God's grace, and wait on the Lord with hope.
In the 31-Day Devotionals for Life series, biblical counselors and Bible teachers guide you through Scripture passages that speak to specific situations or struggles, helping you to apply God’s Word to your life in practical ways day after day.
Endorsements
“Christine Chappell offers comfort and hope to the afflicted reader by sharing the comfort she has received from God amid her suffering through the psalms of lament. She shows how these psalms point beyond our situation to the affliction, lament, and triumph of Christ. Her clear expression of these truths will edify and encourage the reader.”
—Jim Newheiser, Professor of Christian Counseling, Reformed Theological Seminary, Charlotte; Executive Director, Institute of Biblical Counseling & Discipleship
“This book is a faithful guide for suffering saints who want to bring their pain to the Lord but either aren’t sure how, feel too exhausted to try, or are afraid they’ll just be told to ‘focus on the positive.’ Chappell skillfully navigates the biblical tension between hurt and hope without minimizing the depth of our pain or losing sight of the promises of God. I’m grateful to add it to my library as I seek to draw near to the Lord in my pain, and I trust it will be a gift to you as well.”
—Karrie Hahn Devlin, Counselor; Author, Limping Heavenward: Living by Faith in Comprehensive and Chronic Suffering
