Read the Story

The title says this is a Psalm by David. David wanted to be careful with his words. So he kept quiet. But his heart felt hot inside. Then he talked to God.

David said, Let me know how frail I am. He said life is short, like a breath. Then David said, Now, Lord, what do I wait for? My hope is in you. He asked God to hear his prayer.
