Psalm 4

As I read this, a bunch of different thoughts flashed through my head. In verse 2 David wonders how much longer men will "love vain words and seek after lies." A lot of things have changed since David wrote this psalm, but that hasn't--humans are still seeking the wrong things, still sinful. Verses 3 and 5 comforted me: "The Lord hears when I call him" and "Put your trust in the Lord." And verse 7, speaking of people who doubt God: "Thou hast put more joy in my heart than they have when their grain and wine abound." God gives me joy, even though I have doubts and bad days, and I thank Him for that.
