Daily Devo | Finding God in Dark Places (David - Day 8, Psalm 142)

Refusing to take matters into his own hand, David finds himself on the run. Stripped of all other security, David finds himself hiding out in a cave with darkness all around him and darkness within him. In that darkness, David finds a light of hope that will never go out. In this psalm, this prayer, this song, David shows us that God's light can often be seen most clearly in the darkest of places.

For Reflection:

In the darkness of the cave, David discovers a clearer vision of God.

- Have you had a Cave of Adullam experience in your life? Has there been a dark time when you came to see God more clearly? Who or what helped you to turn to God?

- Some people feel comfortable talking about their spiritual disappointments with others but not with God. David shows us that we can bring those desolations directly to God. Do you feel comfortable praying to God that openly and honestly? Why or why not?
