Psalm 51: 15:“O Lord, open my lips, that my mouth may declare Your praise.” Different people have different ways of dealing with the things they are going through. Some deny. Others overthink. Still others act out. David? He wrote psalms. He didn’t run from a situation such as his adultery with Bathsheba and the resulting confrontation with his friend Nathan; he verbalized it before God. This is important! Try it the next time you are struggling with circumstances: ask God to open your lips. It may not make you famous like David, but it will make you better.
