The big idea

Living in a fallen world, lament is the language of Christians to cry out to God, to plead with Him as a child so that we would worship Him joyfully with reaffirmed faith.

Outline

  1. Crying Out to God Honestly and Freely (1-2)

  2. Pleading with God Desperately and Dependently (3-4)

  3. (Re)Committing to Trust God in Joyful Worship (5-6)

Why don’t we lament?\

  • We’d rather pour out our emotions elsewhere\
  • We seek escapes instead of confronting our feelings\
  • We are self-reliant\
  • We have neglected God’s heart
