And with that, let's get into our study in the book of Psalms on Thursday nights. We're going through the Psalms.

And tonight we'll pick it up in Psalm 38 and Lord willing make it to Psalm and through Psalm 41.

I want to mention before I forget that this Sunday, we're really excited and looking forward to and privileged to have Pastor Jack Gibbs that's going to be here for both services.

So I just wanted to mention that by way of a reminder as well and especially for our online church.

So and then of course the conference online church. And then, of course, the conference starts tomorrow.

And then the outreaches are Friday night, Saturday night, and Sunday night.

So I hope you're able to attend at least the evening outreaches.

There's no charge for that.

All right. Psalm 38, starting there.

Let's pray, if you would join with me. We'll ask God to bless our time together in our study of His Word, if you would join with me.

Loving Heavenly Father, will you at this time settle our hearts and enable us to focus and give you pardon me our undivided attention so that you can speak into our lives in and through these psalms that we

have open before us tonight. Lord, we're looking to you, the author, the finisher of our faith

to really minister to us tonight, especially those of us who might find ourselves going through a trial.

Lord, I just pray that as only you can and always do, that you'll bring the comfort of the Holy Spirit as a soothing bomb to hurting hearts.

Lord, thank you for the Psalms and thank you for our time tonight.

We ask you to bless it in Jesus' name. Amen.

All right, let's jump in, verse 1, Psalm 38.

Now this is a Psalm of David to bring to remembrance.

O Lord, do not rebuke me in your wrath, nor chasten me in your hot displeasure,

for your arrows pierce me deeply, and your hand presses me down.

There is no soundness in my flesh because of your anger, nor any health in my bones

because of my sin. For my iniquities have gone over my head like a heavy burden. They are too
