We live in a world that is full of tragedy, pain, and suffering. Jesus said, “In this world you will have trouble.” So it is likely that you have experienced pain and hurt whether emotional, physical, mental or spiritual. Those experiences may have left you feeling speechless, helpless, or hopeless and caused you to question God’s goodness and faithfulness. But God has given the gift of lament to His people to help navigate through and give voice to their pain. With this in mind, we will look at God’s Word to be reminded of the heart of lament.
