Psalms 40 through 43 for today's journey

Since Lent is a season of confession and renewal, these psalms capture of Lenten journey. They are prayers for deliverance and prayers of longing for God. Psalm 41 concludes the Book I of the psalms. Psalms 42 and 43 have been read and offered in worship as one song. Reflect on times when you desire for God, God's healing help, God's reassuring presence, have been as life giving to you as the air you breath and the water you drink. Recall a desperate time of thirst. Have you ever felt desperate for God?
