The reason why the psalmist wrote these words is just as relevant now as it was back then. We must take this psalm seriously and find a quiet space to contemplate the words. We should ask God to teach us the true meaning of the words and what they are trying to convey.

Even questions about who we are, what is our true self about? And why didn’t relationships work? Why were our parents so angry and controlling or sad and distant from their children? Many of us have been asking these questions since we can remember and haven’t gotten any answers.
