No One Cares for My Soul – Ps. 142

This psalm of David is identified as one written while hiding in the cave from king Saul. In total, Saul appears to have sought David’s life between 8 -10 years. David has grown weary of the struggle and constant turmoil. His pen outlines the strangling hold of his loneliness brought on by this constant tension. He concludes by recognizing that Yahweh holds the key to unlocking the doors of his prison of pain.
