PSALM 42

WHY ARE YOU CAST DOWN, O MY SOUL?

This psalm, written by the sons of Korah, describes longing for God in the same way a deer pants for water. The author is distressed and questions the turmoil within his soul. Even in times of trouble, this psalm shows how God can be praised and trusted. 

Psalm 42:5 - Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation.
