Summary

(Psalm 119:145-152) Where should we turn our attention when we feel like crying? God’s Word teaches that we can bring our emotion, feelings, and desperation to the Lord, and His Truth never changes. Even when we’re crying, we can find an anchor in God’s Word. (06116220516) Join Scott Pauley's study through Scripture this year.

0:00.0	The longest Psalm in the Bible is Psalm 119.
0:09.7	It has been called the Psalm of the Scriptures because it concentrates on one thing,
0:15.8	the amazing sufficiency of God's word for our lives.
0:20.0	Open to Psalm 119 today and open your heart to the Lord as we
0:24.4	join Scott Pauli in this study. It is our prayer that through God's truth, you will find all you need.
0:36.1	Solomon tells us in the book of Ecclesiastes that there is a time to laugh and there is also a time to weep.
0:43.3	And the reality of life for all of us, no matter how pleasant your circumstances, no matter how bright and cheer your personality, is that sometimes we cry.
0:59.0	Maybe it's alone. Maybe it is in private. Maybe it's over things that no one ever knows about or sees, but all of us at times are just brokenhearted. Life weighs us

1:26.7	common to man. But I think more
1:28.8	encouraging is this, not only are you not alone because others go through it, you're not alone
1:33.3	because our Lord Jesus went through it. A high priest touched with the feelings of our infirmities
1:38.7	the Bible calls him, and he is with us in the midst of that sorrow every time.
1:45.4	So remember this.
1:49.3	When we cry, the Lord is near the brokenhearted.
1:54.3	We've come in our study through Psalm 119 to the section that begins with verse 145 and continues to verse 152.
1:56.4	This was what was striking to me.
1:58.3	The first two words of verse 145 are these words, I cried. The first two words, verse 145, are these words, I cried. The first two words,
2:03.7	verse 146, are these two words, I cried. And in the middle of the heart of the verse,
